The graph of f(x) = x^2 is shifted 3 units down to obtain the graph of g(x). Which of the following equations best describes g(x)?

g(x) = (x + 3)^2

g(x) = x^2 - 3

g(x) = x^2 + 3

g(x) = (x - 3)^2

@satellite73 Can you help please!

anonymous · Answer

last answer was wrong, i think

anonymous · Answer

this one is easier
three units down, subtract 3 and get
$$ g(x) = x^2 - 3$$

anonymous · Answer

wanna do the other one?

anonymous · Answer

Sure! so the last one was not 19 right?

anonymous · Answer

no i don't think so 
lets go back to that post
