Does anyone know how to do this math

I’m not quite sure what they mean by “rule,” but assuming they’re asking for what the new function is, you plug in (x+2) wherever you see x is f(x). Thus g(x) = (x+2)^4 + 1. I recommend using desmos.com for graphing, but in general, when you shift each input by a positive number, the graph shifts left.

My Graphs:
Red is f(x) and blue is g(x)
