A 3 unit shifted graph shifted is shown in the figure alongside the complete question.

How to draw a shifted figure if the shifts are provided?

Suppose the graph is drawn on the coordinate plane.

Let the shifting be (x, y) → (x + a, y + b)

Then, add 'a' to all x coordinates of the graph's points. Add 'b' to all y coordinates of the graph's points.

The resultant set of new points will be plotted.

Given:

  • Coordinates to be shifted 3 units (-5, 3), (-2, 2), (-3, -2), and (-6,-1).

Shifting formula:


(\text{x},\text{y})= (\text{x}+\text{a}, \ \text{y}+\text{b})

Here we have to shift only to the right side so only x coordinates will be affected.


(-5+3,3) = (-2,3)


(-2+3,2) = (1,2)


(-3+3,-2) = (0,-2)


(-6+3,-1) = (-3,-1)
