You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Part A: Y+=+f%28X-3%29+%2B+7%2F8
The f(X-3) will shift the graph 3 units to the right.
the + 7/8 will move the graph up 7/8 units.
So the answer would be the first option given.
-----------------------------------
Part B: Y+=+f%28X%2B3%29+-+7%2F8
The f(X+3) will shift the graph 3 units to the left.
the - 7/8 will move the graph down 7/8 units.
So the answer would be last option given.

Here is a link to purplemath that has a very helpful description on graphing trigonometric functions and how different variables will move the graph.
