Answer:

see below

Explanation:

The tangent function has been shifted upward by 2 units, but there has been no horizontal scaling. Any horizontal offset must be equal to some number of whole periods.

Choices A and B show tan( )+2, the correct vertical offset. However, choice A has a horizontal scale factor of 2. The correct choice is B, which has no horizontal scaling (the coefficient of x is 1) and a horizontal offset of π, one full period.

_____

Comment on horizontal scaling

Horizontal scaling is different from vertical scaling in that using k·x in place of x compresses the graph horizontally by a factor of k. On the other hand, using k·f(x) in place of f(x) expands the graph vertically by a factor of k.
