Problem

Question 5 of 10 Which function results after applying the sequence of transformations to $f(x)=x^{5} ?$ - shift left 1 unit - vertically compress by $\frac{1}{3}$ - reflect over the $y$-axis A. $f(x)=\left(-\frac{1}{3} x+1\right)^{5}$ B. $f(x)=\frac{1}{3}(-x)^{5}+1$ C. $f(x)=\frac{1}{3}(-x-1)^{5}$ D. $f(x)=\frac{1}{3}(-x+1)^{5}$

Solution

Step 1 :The original function is \(f(x)=x^{5}\).

Step 2 :A shift to the left by 1 unit would result in the function \(f(x)=(x+1)^{5}\).

Step 3 :A vertical compression by \(\frac{1}{3}\) would result in the function \(f(x)=\frac{1}{3}(x+1)^{5}\).

Step 4 :A reflection over the y-axis would result in the function \(f(x)=\frac{1}{3}(-x+1)^{5}\).

Step 5 :\(\boxed{\text{The correct answer is D. } f(x)=\frac{1}{3}(-x+1)^{5}}\)
