Question

The graph of Y = COS X+ż is the graph of the y = cos(x) shifted in which direction?
T
2 units to the left
2
units to the right
units up
2 units down

Answer 1

Answer:

2 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

You're just taking the  entire graph of cos(x) and then adding 2 so it moves everything up.  If you added 2 to x BEFORE taking the cosine

(like y = cos (x+2) ), then you would shift it left 2.  Adding and subtracting from the x moves everything left or right.  Adding or subtracting at the end just moves it up and down.
