Given the function f(x) = x3 + x2 − 2x + 1, what is the resulting function when f(x) is shifted to the left 1 unit? f(x − 1) = x3 − 2x2 − x + 3 f(x + 1) = x3 + 4x2 + 3x + 1 f(x) − 1 = x3 + x2 − 2x f(x) + 1 = x3 + x2 − 2x + 2

@Nnesha

Nnesha (nnesha):

`f(x−h)` h = horizontal shift `f(x) + k` here k= vertical shift if h is negative graph will shift h unit to the right if h is positive graph will shift h unit to the left if k is positive graph shift k unit up if k is negative some unit down

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

wait im confused..

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

oh wait its B .

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

nvm idk. im lost.

Nnesha (nnesha):

alright why do you thinkg its B ?? :=))

Nnesha (nnesha):

left/right = horizontal shift and the number inside the parentheses represent horizontal shift (h)

Nnesha (nnesha):

f(x)+k f(x) -k both represent vertical shifts

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

so it has to be or A or C.

Nnesha (nnesha):

hmm read the question is shifting horizontally or vertical ?

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

to the left .. so horizontal.

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes right so what two options would you cancel out ?

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

ohhhhhh C and D

Nnesha (nnesha):

right now horizontal shift is kinda opposite if h is negative shift to the right side if h is positive shift to the left side

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

So im right... its B. cuz its positive

Nnesha (nnesha):

right f(x+h) shift h unit to the left f(x-h) shift h unit to the right

OpenStudy (gabylovesyou):

ty :)

Nnesha (nnesha):

np :=)))
