Question

Graph y = (x - 1)2 + 2.

Answer 1

Do you know about vertical shift and horizontal shift?

Answer 2

not really

Answer 3

The equation is in vertex form:
\[y=a(x-h)^2+k\]
Where a is the vertical compression or stretch, h is the horzontal shift and k is the vertical shift.
\[y=(x-1)^2+2\]
In the equation given the graph is shifted to the right 1 unit and up 2 units.

Answer 4

Tell me what you know :). And I'll see if I can fill in the rest.
