Using translation concepts, the equation for the transformed logarithm is given by:
[tex]f(x) = \log{(x + 3)} - 3.48[/tex]
A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction in it's definition.
The logarithm function is given by:
[tex]f(x) = \log{x}[/tex].
We have that:
Hence:
[tex]f(x) = \log{x + 3} + b[/tex]
To find the shift up/down, we consider that f(0) = -3, hence:
[tex]-3 = \log{0 + 3} + b[/tex]
[tex]b = -3 - \log{3}[/tex]
b = -3.48.
Hence the function is given by:
[tex]f(x) = \log{x + 3} - 3.48[/tex]
