Q. What kind of transformation converts the graph of f(x)=4∣x+2∣+8 into the graph of g(x)=4∣x+2∣+5?Choices:(A) translation 3 units left(B) translation 3 units right(C) translation 3 units down(D) translation 3 units up
Compare constant terms: Compare the constant terms of f(x) and g(x).f(x) has +8, g(x) has +5.
Calculate difference: Calculate the difference between the constant terms. 8−5=3.
Determine shift direction: Determine the direction of the shift. Since the constant term decreased, the graph shifts down.
Identify transformation type: Identify the type of transformation.The graph shifts 3 units down.
