The answer is B) g (x) is shift 5 units to the right and 2 units up from f (x).

Savage · Answer 2

The equation that is given in this item can be written for clarity as follows:

g (x) = 1 / (x - 5) + 2

It can be seen that the x-component is subtracted with 5 and the g (x) which would lie in the y-axis is added with two. This suggests that the graph of this equation is shifted to the right by 5 units and upwards by 2 units compared to the graph of the parent function.
