transformation that
shifts y = 9/2x + 2 to the

The function is being shifted down 9 units vertically. If you take a look at the y-intercepts, we can see that the function goes from being 2 units above the axis to 7 units below the axis. The change, then, is a translation down 9 units.

Hope this helps!! :)
