The corresponding point for the function  f(x + 2) is (3 , -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about the transformation

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right  by h units,

 then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left  by h units,

 then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)

* Lets solve the problem

- There is a graph of f(x)

- Point (5 , -8) lies on the graph of f(x)

- The graph of f(x) change to f(x + 2)

∵ f(x) ⇒ f(x + 2)

∵ If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left  by h units,

  then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)

∴ f(x) translated horizontally 2 units to the left

∴ Any point on the graph its x-coordinate translated 2 units

  to the left

∴ The x-coordinate of any point on the graph is subtracted by 2

∵ Point (5 , -8) lies on the graph

∴ Its corresponding point is (5 - 2 , -8) = (3 , -8)

* The corresponding point for the function  f(x + 2) is (3 , -8)

answer: 1722

step-by-step explanation:

given: the mass of saturn=

the mass of mercury=

the number of times the mass of saturn is greater than the mass of mercury

hence, the mass of saturn is 1722 times greater than the mass of mercury.

its 50 miles away from the starting point
