Question

The graph of y=ln(5x+10) is obtained from the graph of y=lnx by a translation of a units in the direction of the x-axis followed by a translation of b units in the direction of the y-axis.

Find the value of a and the value of b.

EITHER

y=ln(xa)+b=ln(5x+10)     (M1)

y=ln(xa)+lnc=ln(5x+10)

y=ln(c(xa))=ln(5x+10)     (M1)

OR

y=ln(5x+10)=ln(5(x+2))     (M1)

y=ln(5)+ln(x+2)     (M1)

THEN

a=2, b=ln5     A1A1

 

Note:     Accept graphical approaches.
