Question
Suwanda draws a triangle on the coordinate grid and shifts it 2 units to the right. What function can Suwanda write to demonstrate this transformation? (1 point)
Responses
f(x) = x + 2
f(x) = x + 2
f(x) = 2 + x
f(x) = 2 + x
f(x) = -2 - x
f(x) = -2 - x
f(x) = x - 2
Responses

To shift a triangle (or any shape) on a coordinate grid 2 units to the right, you need to adjust the x-coordinates of the points on the shape. This transformation can be represented by the function:
\[ f(x) = x - 2 \]
This function indicates that for any x-value, you subtract 2 in order to shift the entire shape to the right. Thus, the correct response is:
**f(x) = x - 2**
\[ f(x) = x - 2 \]
This function indicates that for any x-value, you subtract 2 in order to shift the entire shape to the right. Thus, the correct response is:
**f(x) = x - 2**
