Question

Each statement describes a transformation of the graph of y= x. Which statement correctly describes the graph of y= x - 13?

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to picture.

When graph of y = x is transformed to y = x - 13,

U can visualise it by drawing the before and after transformed graphs to compare in order to deduce the answer.

From the picture, you will realise that when x is unchanged, I'm this case I'm using points x=0 and x=13, the value of the y coordinate in the transformed graph (y = x-13) actually decreased by 13 units as compared to the original graph of y=x.

Hence the graph actually got translated 13 units in the direction of negative y axis which is option D

Answer 2

The answer is D where the graph is y = x and it is decreased by 13
