Short Answer

True or False

To obtain the graph of f(x)=x3+5, shift the graph of y=x3 vertically up 5 units.

The given statement is true.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1. Given Information

There is the graph of f(x)=x3+5.

We have to tell whether the statement is true or false if we shift the graph of y=x3 vertically up 5 units.

Step 2. Analyze the graph

The concept is if a positive real number k is added to the outputs of a function y=f(x), the graph of the new function y=f(x)+k is the graph of f shifted vertically up k units.

So, if 5 is added to the outputs of a function y=x3, the graph of the new function f(x)=x3+5 is the graph of function shifted vertically up 5units.

Therefore, the statement is true.
