Answer:
g(9) = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Given f(x) then f(x + a) is a horizontal translation of f(x)
• If a > 0 then shift to the left of a units
• If a < 0 then shift to the right of a units
Here f(x) is translated 3 units right, thus
g(x) = (x - 3)² - 4, hence
g(9) = (9 - 3)² - 4 = 6² - 4 = 36 - 4 = 32
