1. Management originally predicted that the profits from the sales of a new product could be approximated by the graph of the function f shown. The actual profits are represented by the graph of the function g along with a verbal description. Use the concepts of transformations of graphs to write g in terms of f.

a. The profits were only three-fourths as large as expected

b. The profits were consistently $10,000 greater than predicted.

c. There was a two-year delay in the introduction of the product. After sales began, profits grew as expected.

2. Reverse the order of transformations in Example2 (a). Do you obtain the same graph? Do the same for Example 2(b). Do you obtain the same graph? Explain.
