Given the equation, y equals 1 minus the natural logarithm of 4 minus x, find the domain, any horizontal or vertical asymptotes, and then also find the x intercept and the y intercept.
00:45
So let's first get a basic idea of what this graph looks like.
00:50
Let's plot a few points.
00:52
We'll try negative 2, negative 1, 0, 1, and 2.
01:02
So if we put 0 in, we'll get minus 0 .386.
01:10
If we put 1 in, we will get minus 0 .096, and let's put positive 2 in.
01:20
We finally crossed the x -axis and we get positive 0 .3068.
01:29
So right there, we know we have an intercept somewhere between 1 and 2.
01:35
Let's try negative 1.
01:37
Well, negative 1, we have minus 0 .69, and minus 2.
01:44
We have minus 0 .792.
01:48
So as you can see, we're going more negative, but we jumped from over into the positive side.
01:57
So let's keep going that way.
01:59
And we go three and four.
02:02
Let's put in positive three.
02:04
We'll get one.
02:06
And if we put it in positive four, i'll solve that problem.
02:11
One minus the natural logarithm of form minus four is one minus the natural logarithm of zero.
02:21
And this is impossible so we know there's a point here.
02:26
So we just found an asset.
02:36
Let's graph this and see what it looks like.
02:48
We'll make this one and have 0.
02:58
We're going to be at minus 0 .3.
03:04
At 1 will be really close to the line.
03:08
We'll be at 0 .09.
03:10
There.
03:12
At 2 we'll be at 0 .3...
