The graph of $y=f(x+3)-5$ is shown. Which equation defines function $f$?
Answer:
B
Explanation
The correct answer is Choice B.
Determine the linear equation of the given graph. Then, apply the function transformation rules to find $f(x)$.
Choices A, C, and D are incorrect and may result from algebraic mistakes.
✨ Expert's Tip ✨
Given $y=f(x)$, substituting $x-a$ and $y-b$ into the function would translate the graph of the new function, $y=f(x-a)+b$, horizontally by $a$ units and vertically by $p$.
