The function f, represented by f(x)=122.8x+786.2, models the average tuition at public four-year colleges from 1981 to 1994, where x is the year and x=1 corresponds to 1981. Use transformations to determine a function g that computes the average tuition at four-year colleges during the year x, where x is the actual year.

Need some guidance please?
Jus put 1981 at the place where x=1. I.E. relable your axis.
