Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's break down the problem and solve it step-by-step.
We are given four transformations of a graph and four graphs labeled (A), (B), (C), and (D). We need to match the graphs to the given transformations.
The transformations are:
- (Shift the graph 2 units to the right).
- (Shift the graph 2 units to the right, reflect over the x-axis, and shift 1 unit upward).
- (Reflect over the y-axis and shift 2 units to the left).
- (Shift the graph 2 units to the right and reflect over the x-axis).
The graphs:
We will now analyze each graph to match the corresponding transformations.
(A) Graph:
- This graph appears to be a reflection over the x-axis but not shifted.
- It is likely a reflection and then shifted right by 2 units.
- This matches the transformation (Option IV).
(B) Graph:
- This graph seems to be reflected over both the x and y axes.
- The shift is also rightward by 2 units and the graph is reflected over the x-axis, and shifted upward by 1 unit.
- This matches the transformation (Option II).
(C) Graph:
- This graph appears to be a reflection over the y-axis with a leftward shift.
- This matches the transformation (Option III).
(D) Graph:
- This graph is a simple horizontal shift to the right by 2 units.
- This matches the transformation (Option I).
Final answer:
- Graph A: (IV)
- Graph B: (II)
- Graph C: (III)
- Graph D: (I)
