Answer:

The equation of line C would be y = -1/2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation, we first need to find the slope. Since the original line has a slope of 2 and all perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes, we know the new line to have a slope of -1/2.

Now we use that along with the given point in point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -1/2(x - 4)

y - 2 = -1/2x + 2

y = -1/2x + 4

Shifting to left mean adding the number from each occurrence of x from the given function.

So, shifting x³ , 3 units to left will result in:

f(x) = (x + 3)³

Shifting down means subtracting the number from the function value.

So, shifting 2 units down will result in:

f(x) = (x + 3)³ - 2

Therefore, option A is the correct graph
