Question

Multiple Choice
Graph the function. How is the graph a translation of f(x)= x^2?

y=(x-1)^2+3

Answer 1

I think its C . translated up 3 uits and translated to the left 1 units

Answer 2

Last one because what is in the parenthesis is what it moves on the x axis so +2 is to the right two. And on the outside of parenthesis is on the y axis so +3 is up 3.

Answer 3

units*

Answer 4

not left, it moves right?

Answer 5

Ok you where close and made a common mistake so did I its +1, remember you are squaring the parenthesis so whatever is inside is opposite. So - is + and + is -. So you would be moving to the right +1 not to the left.

Answer 6

oh ok, thank you! i see now.

Answer 7

Another reason why C was wrong is because it went down 3 when you go up 3

Answer 8

No problem
