Question

Write the function whose graph is the graph of y=x^3, but shifted to the left 1 unit

is this written ... y=x^3-1? by chance?

Answer 1

function of y=x^3-1 would be a function that is moved VERTICALLY 1 unit to the - y direction.

Answer 2

Transformations applied to the function that changes its position on the x-axis changes the x-value, such as y = (x+1)^2
