Question

PLEASE HURRY!

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

y= x - 8?

A. It is the graph of y= x translated 8 units to the left

B. It is the graph of y= x translated 8 units up.

C. It is the graph of y=x translated 8 units down.

D. It is the graph of y=xwhere the slope is decreased by 8.
​

Answer 1

c

Explanation:

its in slope intercept form, or y=mx+b where b is the y intercept, i.e. how far down the line hits the y axis. m would be the slope but we dont need to worry about that for now. since b is the y intercept, -8 would mean 8 units down
