Ronald Shah · Answer 1

The graph would be translated 3 units to the right.

This notation means to ADD 3 to each x value which would move everything horizontally in the positive direction (right)

Kellen Hammond · Answer 2

To move a graph c units to the right minus c from every x

to move a graph c units to the left, add c to every x

obviously we are adding 3 to every x

moving the graph 3 units to the left
