When a function is shifted to the right by 1 unit it is moved towards the negative side so we would be adding -1 to the value of x. The function f(x) would be f(x-1). To determine the resulting function, we substitute to the parent function (x-1) to x. We do as follows:
<span>f (x) = x^3 + 2x^2 − 3x − 5
</span>f (x-1) = (x-1)^3 + 2(x-1)^2 − 3(x-1) − 5
f (x-1) = x^3 - 3x^2 + 3x - 1 + 2(x^2 - 2x + 1) - 3x + 3 - 5
f (x-1) = x^3 - 3x^2 + 2x^2 + 3x - 4x - 3x - 1 + 2 + 3 - 5
f (x-1) = <span>x^3 - x^2 - 4x - 1
Therefore, the correct answer is the last option.</span>
Answer:
f(x) = 1/(x+2) + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph depicts the line of 1/x shifted to the left by 2 and up by 7.
Use a ruler. I can't see the picture.
