Use the graph of y = f(x) to graph each function g.

g(x) = f(x-1) - 2

검증된 단계별 안내

Identify the original function f(x) from the graph. Here, f(x) is a horizontal line segment from x = 1 to x = 4 with a constant value of y = -3.

Understand the transformation in g(x) = f(x - 1) - 2. The term (x - 1) inside the function shifts the graph of f(x) horizontally to the right by 1 unit.

The '- 2' outside the function shifts the graph vertically downward by 2 units.

Apply the horizontal shift: move the original segment from [1, 4] to [2, 5] because each x-value increases by 1.

Apply the vertical shift: subtract 2 from the y-value of -3, resulting in a new y-value of -5. So, the new segment for g(x) is from (2, -5) to (5, -5).

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Function Transformation

Function transformations involve shifting, stretching, or reflecting the graph of a function. In this problem, g(x) = f(x-1) - 2 represents a horizontal shift to the right by 1 unit and a vertical shift downward by 2 units of the original function f(x). Understanding these shifts helps in accurately graphing the new function.

Horizontal Shift

A horizontal shift occurs when the input variable x is replaced by (x - h), shifting the graph h units to the right if h is positive, or to the left if h is negative. Here, f(x-1) shifts the graph of f(x) one unit to the right, moving every point on the graph accordingly.

Vertical Shift

A vertical shift involves adding or subtracting a constant to the function's output, moving the graph up or down. In g(x) = f(x-1) - 2, subtracting 2 shifts the entire graph of f(x-1) down by 2 units, lowering the y-values of all points by 2.

Use the graph of y = f(x) to graph each function g.g(x) = f(x-1) - 2
