Question

In the xy-plane, which of the following changes to the graph of the equation y = x2 + 3 will result in the graph of the equation y = ( x2 + 3 ) - 6 ?

  1. A shift 6 units to the left
  2. A shift 6 units to the right
  3. A shift 6 units upward
  4. A shift 6 units downward

The correct answer is: A shift 6 units downward


    The addition or subtraction of constant to the output of the function, shifts the function to left or right.
    Since, 6 is subtracted, it shifts 6 units to the left.
