Question

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

g(x) is shifted 2 units to the right and 6 units down.
g(x) is shifted 2 units to the right and 6 units up.
g(x) is shifted 2 units to the left and 6 units down.
g(x) is shifted 6 units to the left and 2 units down.

Answer 1

The transformation to the parent function f(x) from g(x) is (b) g(x) is shifted 2 units to the right and 6 units up

How to compare the graphs?

The equations are given as:

f(x) = x^3

g(x) = (x - 2)^3 + 6

The function g(x) can be rewritten as:

g(x) = (x - h)^3 + k

This means that the function f(x) is shifted right by h units and shifted up by k units.

By comparison:

h = 2 and k = 6

Hence, the transformation to the parent function f(x) from g(x) is (b) g(x) is shifted 2 units to the right and 6 units up
