Data

1. A horizontal stretch by scale factor 12\dfrac{1}{2} (compression towards the yy-axis). 2. A reflection in the yy-axis. 3. A translation by (30)\begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix}.
Consider f(x)=ln⁡(x)f(x) = \ln(x) for x>0x > 0. Let g(x)g(x) be obtained by applying the following transformations to f(x)f(x) in the order
(a)
Show that g(x)=ln⁡(−2x+6)g(x) = \ln(-2x + 6), and state the domain of gg. [4 marks]
(b)
Using the log identity ln⁡(ab)=ln⁡a+ln⁡b\ln(ab) = \ln a + \ln b, express g(x)g(x) in the form A+ln⁡(B−x)A + \ln(B - x), where AA and BB are exact constants to be found. [2 marks]
(c)
A student claims that applying the three transformations in the order: translate → horizontal stretch → reflect produces the same function g(x)g(x). Determine the function gnew(x)g_{\text{new}}(x) produced by this reordering, state its domain, and hence evaluate whether the student's claim is correct, justifying your answer by comparing gnew(x)g_{\text{new}}(x) with g(x)g(x) from part (b). [4 marks]
