SOLUTION: Hi can someone please help me with transformations: y = -(-x+2)^4 Besides the fact that its reflected in both x and y axis, does it shift to the left 2 units or to the right?

Question 1130156: Hi can someone please help me with transformations:
y = -(-x+2)^4
Besides the fact that its reflected in both x and y axis, does it shift to the left 2 units or to the right? When you take out the negative: y = -(-(x-2))^4, so wouldn't it move right 2 units?
Thanks!

It is a line OF THE DEGREE 4  like a parabola open downward.  Agree ?


The vertex is at x= 2.


Hence, the line is shifted 2 units to the right from 0 (from zero).
