The original function y=f(x)
in the graph (solid line) goes through the point (1,1)
and is translated using a horizontal translation. Where is this point located after the translation, and what is the translated function?

(1 point)

The point is located at (1,3)
, and the translated function is y=f(x−2)
.

The point is located at (1,1)
, and the translated function is y=f(x−2)
.

The point is located at (3,1)
, and the translated function is y=f(x+2)
.

The point is located at (3,1)
, and the translated function is y=f(x−2)
.

Answer 1

The correct choice is: The point is located at (3,1), and the translated function is y = f(x − 2).

Reason: y = f(x − 2) shifts the graph 2 units to the right, moving (1,1) to (3,1).
