Question

Consider the function ƒ(x) = x2. Which of the following functions shifts ƒ(x) downward 5 units and to the right 3 units?

A)

ƒ(x) = (x – 5)2 – 3

B)

ƒ(x) = (x – 3)2 – 5

C)

ƒ(x) = (x + 3)2 – 5

D)

ƒ(x) = (x – 5)2 + 3

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

f(x)=(x+3)2 3 units to the left

f(x)=(x-3)2 3 units to the right

f(x)=(x)2+5 upward 5 units

f(x)=(x)2-5 downward 5 units
