Question

11 jim starts with the equation $y = x$. he draws a new graph and moves the graph 4 units down. what is the new equation? $y=-4x$

Explanation:

Step1: Recall vertical shift rule

For a function $y = f(x)$, shifting down $k$ units gives $y = f(x) - k$.

Step2: Apply shift to given equation

Original equation: $y = x$. Shift down 4 units: $y = x - 4$.

Answer:

$y = x - 4$
