OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=2x^2 is at the center origin(0,0) parabola y=2x^2 -1 ,vertex at (0,-1) shifted y=-1 A). y=2(x-4)^2 -1 ,parabola shifted to the right,vertex at (4,-1) shifted to the right x=4,y=-1 can you try the other 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B) y=2(x+4)^2 -1,parabola shifted to the left,vertex at (-4,-1) shifted to the left x=-4,y=-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try the other two @ malibugranprix2000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am trying to look at what you wrote and I am figuring it out.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok take your time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am stuck on how to figure this out.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok lets figure out C)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on A) the parabola y=2(x-4)^2 -1 , shifted to the right,vertex at (4,-1) shifted to the right x=4,y=-1, the vertex on A) is at V(4,-1),, but on C) you wanted it to be V(x,y)=V(4,+1) to be lifted up to y=1 therefore just change y yo be y=+1 , and A) becomes y=2(x-4)^2 +1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

notice if you want to be on the right side you use (x-4) if you want to be on the left side you use (x+4) also if you want to be on the top side you just add y if you want to be on the bottom side you just subtract y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So is A the answer to this problem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm you talking about y=2(x+4)^2 -1 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for this one (x+4) and -1 you moved the graph to the left side and brought down to y=-1 thats B)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on wait a minute, i just noticed the graph of A), C) and D) are so narrow but on B) its wider... so the graph should be either on A), C) and D) not B)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so instead of B), y=2(x+4)^2 -1 , its D)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

both B) and D) looks the same but different on narrow or wider parabola

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um I realized it looks smaller I can give the bigger picture

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D is the right answer. this link might help for future reference http://jwilson.coe.uga.edu/emt668/EMAT6680.Folders/Barron/Write-ups/Assignment%202/Barronwrite-up2.html
