How does the graph of g(x)=(x+2)3-6 compare to the parent function of f(x) = x³?

Answer:

The graph has been moved two units to the left and six units to the bottom.

Explanation:

You can rewrite your function as
y+6= (x+2)^2 which can also be rewritten as
Y= X^3 who has the same shape as the parent function. The main difference is that the point
O (0;0) which acts as a symmetry center has been replaced by
O' (-2;-6); the whole graph has been moved two units to the left and six units to the bottom.
