Conclusions:
1 ( x 10) 7 vertical asymptote: x 10 domain: x > 10, x R
Given the function y
log 2
The x-intercept should be 7 units to the right of the vertical asymptote. This is referred to as a horizontal stretch about the line x 10 when being compared to the graph defined by the function y log 2 ( x 10) . Proof: Solve for the x-intercepts for the following:
log 2
1 ( x 10) 7
0 log 2 ( x 10)
0 log 2
1 ( x 10) 7

One more example to consider:

From what we’ve discovered so far, the x-intercept should be 5 units to the left of x 3 .
