There are 3 shifts in this function. 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.

Summary: Shift 2 LEFT, 1 UP, and INVERT!!
