For Q20: In the graph, the x coordinate has been halved because of the 2x (it has not been doubled) and the y co-ordinate has had 3 subtracted from it. We want the original equation (f(x)) before the x coordinate was halved and the y coordinate had 3 subtracted from it. So we have to do the opposite to get back to (f(x)) which is to double the x coordinate (6x2=12) and add 3 onto the y coordinate (4+3=7) therefore the answer must be A (12, 7) as stated above.
