Question 3 (Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

g(x) = x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The parent function is given as:

f(x) = x + 8

We want to find a new function that results after shifting f(x), 2 units to the right.

Let that function be g(x), then

g(x) = f(x - 2)

We replace x by x-2 in f(x) to get:

g(x) = x - 2 + 8

When we simplify, we obtain:

g(x) = x + 6
