If g(x) = f(x)-1 how is the graph f(x) translated to form the graph of g(x)?

The graph of f(x) has been shifted down 1 unit to get the graph of g(x)

Recall that y = f(x). So saying g(x) = f(x) - 1 is really saying g(x) = y-1. Whatever the y value is, we subtract 1 from it. This visually will shift the point down 1 unit. Apply this to every point on the f(x) curve, and the entire curve shifts down 1 unit.

note: the x coordinate stays the same which is why we don't have any side to side movement.

As an example, I have attached the graph of f(x) = x^2 and g(x) = x^2-1

answer: 1,380

step-by-step explanation:

1: you turn %15 into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left.

2: and then you multiply .15 by 1,200 , which will get you 180.00

3: from there you will add 180 to 1,200

4: which will get you 1,380

hope it *im kind of slow so idk if my answer is right*
