Question

Graph the function f by starting with the graph of y = x^2 and using transformations(shifting, compressing, stretching, and/or reflection). [ Hint: If necessary, write f in the form f(x) = a(x-h)^2 + k] #23 f(x) = x^2 + 4x + 2

Answer 1

You first want to change \[
x^2+4x+2
\]into vertex form. Do you know how to complete the square?

Answer 2

yes
