To find the equation of the transformed logarithm [tex]\( y = a \log(\pm x + c) \)[/tex] that passes through the points [tex]\((0, 0)\)[/tex] and [tex]\((-1, 2)\)[/tex], let's follow a step-by-step approach:
1. Substitute the first point [tex]\((0, 0)\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
0 = a \log(0 + c)
\][/tex]
This simplifies to:
[tex]\[
0 = a \log(c)
\][/tex]
Since [tex]\( \log(c) = 0 \)[/tex] when [tex]\( c = 1 \)[/tex] (recall that [tex]\(\log(1) = 0\)[/tex]) and assuming [tex]\( a \neq 0 \)[/tex], we get:
[tex]\[
c = 1
\][/tex]
2. Substitute [tex]\( c = 1 \)[/tex] and the second point [tex]\((-1, 2)\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
2 = a \log(-1 + 1)
\][/tex]
This simplifies to:
[tex]\[
2 = a \log(0)
\][/tex]
which is undefined because [tex]\(\log(0)\)[/tex] is not a real number. This indicates we need to re-evaluate our original assumptions.
Having verified [tex]\( \log \)[/tex] itself isn't providing a proper solution, we need to introduce a modulus transformation because our [tex]\( x \)[/tex] value is negative at point [tex]\((-1, 2)\)[/tex].
Let's check:
[tex]\[
y = a \log(x + c)
\][/tex]
and explicit points ([tex]\((0, 0)\)[/tex] and [tex]\(c\)[/tex] being real).
3. Considering:
For the log to remain positive, we would modify:
[tex]\( c > 1\)[/tex] for [tex]\(1\log\ finding\(0,0\)[/tex] .
[tex]\(0 = a \log |-1 + c) (√ eliminate solution).
So, fix on right log only.
Given \(log 1\)[/tex]=0 case.
Converting base changes:
Instead, verify:
\[
y = - (-1+1) = as constant 1 - \log(x + c)
Turn/: point checks.
Use:
Valid log rectangular axes check
[tex]\( x,sp \left( - |- \(0, left a constraint solution.
Alternative axis change positive values.
Retain original new log:

Checking values \((log=c\)[/tex] correct [tex]\( ).
