Question

Which statement best shows how the vertical shift affects the parent function y=x when shifted to y=x+5 ?(1 point) Responses y=x+5 will have each point 5 steps lower than y=x . y equals x plus 5 will have each point 5 steps lower than y equals x . y=x+5 will have each point 5 steps higher than y=x . y equals x plus 5 will have each point 5 steps higher than y equals x . y=x+5 will have each point 5 steps to the left of y=x . y equals x plus 5 will have each point 5 steps to the left of y equals x . y=x+5 will have each point 5 steps to the right of y=x . y equals x plus 5 will have each point 5 steps to the right of y equals x .

Answer 1

The correct statement is: **y equals x plus 5 will have each point 5 steps higher than y equals x.**

This is because adding 5 to the function y = x shifts the entire graph of the parent function y = x upward by 5 units.
