Answer:
[tex]g(x) = x + 6[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The parent function is given as:
[tex]f(x) = x + 8[/tex]
We want to find a new function that results after shifting f(x), 2 units to the right.
Let that function be g(x), then
[tex]g(x) = f(x - 2)[/tex]
We replace x by x-2 in f(x) to get:
[tex]g(x) = x - 2 + 8[/tex]
When we simplify, we obtain:
[tex]g(x) = x + 6[/tex]
