Question

if the picture below is y = f(x) then graph the function if its function is now y = f(x-3) + 2

Answer 1

in general,

y = a*f(x-h) + k

shifts the graph of y = f(x) and h takes care of the horizontal shifting and k pellets the graph up and down

the 'a' stretches or compresses the graph

Answer 2

so what are h and k in this case?

Answer 3

h is 3 and k is 2

Answer 4

so this means that you start with y = f(x) and to get y = f(x-3) + 2, you shift f(x) 3 units to the right (since h = 3) and 2 units up (because k = 2)

Answer 5

oh! cause i though it was 3 units to the left ok i understand :) can you help me with another graph question?

Answer 6

no because it's x-h and not x+h, it's going to be the opposite

Answer 7

and sure

Answer 8

ok ill post it as a separate question, give me a sec

Answer 9

ok
