Transformations of Logarithmic Functions

The video tutorial explains how to graph the function y = log base 2 of x and transform it into y = 2 log base 2 of (-x - 3) through a series of transformations. It covers replacing x with -x, shifting the graph by replacing x with x + 3, and finally multiplying the function by 2 to achieve the desired graph.

What is the initial equation given in the problem?

• y = 2 log base 2 of x

• y = log base 10 of x

• y = log base 2 of x

• y = 2 log base 10 of x
