7. A graph of y = f (x) follows. No formula for fis given.

Which graph (A, B, C, or D) represents the graph of =f(x-1)-2?

BRIEFLY EXPLAIN how you have decided which graph is the correct one.

y = f(x) (below) (Grid supplied for scratch work; You are NOT required to submit your own graph)

8. no explanation required)
