Question

how do i do this @Nory @mathstudent55

Answer 1

If it's shifted down 3 units, that means it's plus negative 3.

Answer 2

For example, if you had x^2 shifted down 3 units, it would be x^2 - 3.

Answer 3

x^3+3?

Answer 4

No, if it's shifted down 3, that's x^2 - 3.

Answer 5

Does that make sense?

Answer 6

i thought the sign changes since its a negative

Answer 7

Not exactly. Remember, if you flip the whole entire graph, that means it's a negative. If you shift it down, that means you subtract a number from the equation.

Answer 8

Does that help?
