Start with the parent function f(x) = x³
Notice the function f(x) = (x - 4)³ that a value '4' is subtracted from 'x' ⇒ This means the function f(x) is translated four units to the right.
Then the function f(x) = ¹/₂ (x - 4)³, the function (x - 4)³ is halved vertically ⇒ Half the y-coordinate
Then the function f(x) = ¹/₂ (x - 4)³ + 5 that a value '5' is added to ¹/₂ (x - 4)³ ⇒ This means the function f(x) is translated five units up
So the order of transformation that is happening to f(x) = x³ is translation four units to the right, half the y-coordinate, then translate 5 units up.
Like terms are terms whose variables are the same. In this case, 7 and 2 have no coefficients therefore are like terms. For example, 7x and 2x would both be like terms because they have the same coefficient which is x.

You've been given that AC = BC. So that's the first side or S of the proof. Then you've been given â 3 = â 4, which is the angle. And finally, CM = CM, which is the second S. So you have AC=BC, and â 3 = â 4, and finally CM = CM. So SAS can be used to prove that triangle ACM is congruent to triangle BCM.</span>
