Here we have the following rational function:
So the graph of this function is shown in the First Figure below. Let's define another function which is a parent function:
Whose graph is shown in the second figure below. So we can get the graph of f from the graph of g this way:
Step 1. Shift the graph 3 units to the left:
Step 2. Shift the graph 2 units down:
Finally, the features of the graph of f are:
The graph of this function comes from the parent function g and the transformations are:
- A shifting 3 units to the left
- A shifting 2 units down
