How do the graphs of f(x)=x+2 and g(x)=x+2 compare?

See below.

Explanation:

graph{sqrt(x)-2 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

For x2, above.

graph{sqrt(x-2) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

For x2, above.

They are pretty similar, for one fact: doing f(x)k shifts the graph k units down, and f(x)+k shifts it k units up.

On the other hand, doing f(xk) shifts the graph k units right, and f(x+k) shifts it k units left.

And so, the above.
