What must be done to a function’s equation so that its graph is shifted horizontally to the right? Give
an example showing the two functions and their graphs.
Let f be a function and c a positive real number,
The graph of y=f(x-c) is the graph y=f(x) shifted to the right c units
In this example we have the function f ( x)=x 2
To shift this graph to the right we need to subtract a real number c, so as an example c = 4
2
So, now we have our new graph for g ( x ) =( x−4 ) =f (x−4)
