Alright Im not to good with graphs but.

I think If it goes down it would be a negative so I would Have to say B would be the answer.

Answer:

B) The graph shifts 3 units down.

Step-by-step explanation:

The parent function is f(x) and we the translated function is in the form f(x)-3.

Transformation Rule:

If the parent function is f(x) and if we subtract some constant 'a' in f(x) then the function will move down by 'a' units.

Here 3 has been subtracted with f(x). Thus, from the transformation rule, we can conclude that f(x) will shift down by 3 units.

Therefore, the correct option is

B) The graph shifts 3 units down.
