Question

what affect does the constant have on each of these graphs

f(x) = x^2 - 6

g(x) = (x - 6)^2

h(x) = x + 3

k(x) = (x + 3)^2

Answer 1

i believe the first one is down 6, second 1 right 6, third one down 3, fourth one left 3?

please correct me if i'm wrong

Answer 2

look at the graphs

Answer 3

may you explain the third one? i'm not quite understanding the shift and why it is a straight line

Answer 4

f(x) you can see shifts the x^2 graph vertically down 6 units
g(x) will move x^2 graph 6 units to the right
h*(x) is a line graph y=x moves 3 units left

and finally k(x) moves graph x^2----- 3 to the left

the third is x to the first power

the line equation is y=mx+b

here the m is 1

Answer 5

you should take the time and memorize these shifts they are important...

Answer 6

thank you so much

Answer 7

you're welcome
