The functions f(x) and g(x) are described below.
f(x) = 32x + 8
g(x) = 32x - 9
The graph of g(x) is obtained by shifting down the graph of f(x) by _____ units
OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):
do you know what to do? all you have to do is subtract -9 from 8... so 8-(-9)
OpenStudy (unanimoose):
^ Yeah no.
OpenStudy (unanimoose):
The graph is being shifted downwards.
f(x) = 32x + 8 <-- this number controls that.

You need to find out the number of units that distances -9 from 8 and that is how many units it has been shifted.
OpenStudy (igreen):
Just add 9 + 8
OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):
yes.... I understand that. 8--9 is the same as 8+9 which is 17... it shifts 17 units down
OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):
down

@BloomLocke367 Nice work, but try not to give the answer.

But please don't give the direct answer.
