Ella draws a hexagon on the coordinate grid and shifts it 7 units to the left. Use a function to show the translation. What function does Ella write?(1 point)

Responses

f(x)=x−7
f left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals x minus 7

f(x)=x
f left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals x

g(y)=y−7
g left parenthesis y right parenthesis equals y minuus 7

f(x)=x+7

To represent a translation of a shape 7 units to the left on the coordinate grid, you would need to subtract 7 from the x-coordinate of each point of the hexagon.

The correct function to represent this translation is:

f(x) = x - 7

Thus, the function Ella writes is f(x)=x7.
