given the function f(x) = 2(x-1)^2 +1, indicate the shifts that will effect the location of the vertex and explain what effect they will have. use complete sentences.

hint: the vertex of y = a(x-h)^2 + k is the point (h,k)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

close, but h actually is h = 1 and NOT h = -1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so the vertex is (1,1)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so you can use that info to tell how the function shifts/translates
