AI Thread Summary
To sketch the function g(x) = f(x-2) + 1 = 1 + e^(x-2), start with the graph of e^x. Scale the graph by dividing by e^2 to adjust the amplitude. Then, apply a vertical shift upwards by 1 unit. This transformation results in the desired graph of g(x). The steps provided clarify how to accurately represent the function on a graph.

I'm new here and I just had a question. I can't seem to get this graphing problem. Sketch g(x)=f(x-2) + 1 = 1 + e^x-2... on a graph. Thank you very much.

Start with the graph of ex. Scale by dividing by e2. Finally shift up 1.
 
Thank you very much for your help Mathman.
 
Seemingly by some mathematical coincidence, a hexagon of sides 2,2,7,7, 11, and 11 can be inscribed in a circle of radius 7. The other day I saw a math problem on line, which they said came from a Polish Olympiad, where you compute the length x of the 3rd side which is the same as the radius, so that the sides of length 2,x, and 11 are inscribed on the arc of a semi-circle. The law of cosines applied twice gives the answer for x of exactly 7, but the arithmetic is so complex that the...
