How does the graph of g(x) = (x - 2)3 + 7 compare to the parent function f(x) = x³?

The graph of g(x) = (x - 2)^3 + 7 is a transformation of the parent function f(x) = x^3.

The parent function f(x) = x^3 has a shape that is symmetrical about the origin and increases as x moves away from the origin. The graph of g(x) = (x - 2)^3 + 7 is also symmetrical about the origin, but it has been translated 2 units to the right and 7 units up from the parent function.

So, the graph of g(x) = (x - 2)^3 + 7 is similar in shape to the parent function f(x) = x^3, but it is shifted to the right and up on the coordinate plane.
