Question 957587
"If h(x) is a horizontal translation 8 units left of f(x)=-2x-5, what is the rule for h(x)? Its an multiple choice
----
You add to "the variable expression" to move the graph left.
Assuming that f(x) = -2x - 5 , then  h(x) = -2(x+8)-5 = -2x-21
---
Comment::
If your f(x) = -2(x-5) your answer would be h(x) = -2(x-5+8) = -2(x+3)
