describe how the graph of y=x^2 can be transformed to the graph of the given equation.

y=(x-16)^2

*1) shift the graph of y=x^2 down 16 units.
*2) shift the graph of y=x^2 left 16 units.
*3) shift the graph of y=x^2 right 16 units
*4) shift the graph of y=x^2 up 16 units.

Why did you change your answer  @angela210793 with g = xh..

angela210793 · Answer

idk...i mean.. i remember reading something abt this kind of transformation when i wan in my 11th grade but i dont remember wht was it saying :P
but anyway this is easy to find just by finding the vertex...am just too lazy :)
hang on ill do it
