True/False

An automation engineer is programming a robotic arm to follow a parabolic trajectory defined by the base function f(x)=x2f(x) = x^2. To adjust for a new workstation position, the engineer updates the trajectory to f(x)=(x5)2f(x) = (x-5)^2. True or False: This update shifts the original trajectory 5 units to the left.
