Answer:

shift the graph right by pi

Step-by-step explanation:

anything attached to the x variable in a trig function will shift the graph horizontally (in this case, by pi to the right)

Answer:

The effect of  [tex]\pi[/tex] on the graph is it shift the graph horizontally.                      

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Function [tex]y=-2-\cos(x-\pi)[/tex]

To find : What effect [tex]\pi[/tex] does have on the basic graph?          

Solution :

Consider the parent function [tex]y=\cos x[/tex]

The graph get transformed into [tex]y=-2-\cos(x-\pi)[/tex]

When there is a change in the x value then horizontal shift happened.

The general form of cosine is [tex]f(x)=A\cos(B(x-C))+D[/tex]

The horizontal shift in this function is C.

Similarly, If we applied in [tex]y=-2-\cos(x-\pi)[/tex] then there is a horizontal shift of [tex]\pi[/tex]

Therefore, The effect of  [tex]\pi[/tex] on the graph is it shift the graph horizontally.
