Question

The function g(x) is a transformation of f(x), and g(x) = f(x) + 2. What type of transformation of f(x) is g(x)? A. dilation B. horizontal translation C. reflection D. vertical translation

Answer 1

This is called a vertical translation, which is answer D.

Explanation:

Given: g(x) = f(x) + 2.

This means that g(x) is the "same" like (x) and that all points of the graph of f(x) are shifted up by 2 units, in order to form g(x).

The type of transformation is called a vertical translation, which is answer D.
