First, since this is a function of x+2 instead of a function of x, there is a shift to the value of x that \"zeros\" this out, which is x= -2.  That is a shift of 2 units to the left.  The fact that there is +2 added to the function moves everything UP one unit.  The negative sign INVERTS the function.\r<BR>\n" );
