    what is a function
    ) How are the graphs of these functions different?
    f(x) = x3 and g(x) = (x + 3)3?

    b) How are the graphs of these functions different?
    j(x) = | x | and k(x) = | x + 3 |?

    what is x3? If that is supposed to be x^3, please use the ^ symbol (SHIFT 6) when referring to an exponent.

    Graph them and see what the difference is.

    For the first one, is shifted 3 units to the left.

    If it were , it would be shifted 3 units to the right.

    Use the same sort of reasoning on the second problem.
