Question

How would I solve this problem?  Explain the appropriate translations of your graphs.  1.	f(x)= 2(x + 10)^2 - 2 to f(x)=2(x+8)^2-7

f(x)=    2(x + 10)^2                         - 2 
                         ^                                   ^
             horizontal shift                vertical shift

to f(x)=   2(x+8)^2                             -7
                         ^                                   ^
             horizontal shift                vertical shift

y = A ( Bx + C ) + D C = horizontal shift, C > 0, to the left, C < 0, to the right D = vertical shift, D > 0, up, D < 0 down
