Describe the translation in each function as it relates to the graph f(x)=x

Question

g(x)= (x + 2)

g(x)=(x - 7.5)

Answer 1

These translations are horizontal translations. The direction is opposite of the sign, addition is to the left and subtraction is to the right.

g(x)= (x + 2) This is a horizontal shift 2 units to the left

g(x)=(x - 7.5) This is a horizontal shift 7.5 units to the right
