Answer:

D

Explanation:

If y = log x is the basic function, let's see the transformation rule(s):

Then,

1. y = log (x-a) is the original shifted a units to the right.

2. y = log x + b is the original shifted b units up

Hence, from the equation, we can say that this graph is:

** 2 units shifted right (with respect to original), and

** 10 units shifted up (with respect to original)

only, left or right shift affects vertical asymptotes.

Since, the graph of y = log x has x = 0 as the vertical asymptote and the transformed graph is shifted 2 units right (to x = 2), x = 2 is the new vertical asymptote.

Answer choice D is right.
