Question

Harvey wants to transform the function f(x) = x² + 2 over 4 units to the

left. He adds 4 to the end of the function, giving him g(x) = x² + 6.
Did Harvey transform this function correctly? If not, how should he have
transformed it? What should the function look like?

Answer 1

Answer: No, Harvey did not do this correctly. He transformed the function upwards

Step-by-step explanation: Simply adding 4 to f(x) only moves it upward

To transform f(x) to the left 4 units perform this operation:

f(x +4) = (x -4)^2 +2
