Answer 14

Hey Emily! You got my tag! =D Can you help here?

Answer 15

It might have helped with a given example ;)
so...
for example given the vertex form of a parabola: y = (x - h)^2 + k
when coordinate (h, k) is the vertex
when it say something like "translate left 2 units"
know that "left/right" would be along the x-axis therefore affecting the "h" variable in the vertex form.
and when "up 3 units"
know that "up/down" would be along the y-axis, therefore affecting the "k" variable in the vertex form.
but be careful that when you do plug it into algebraic form that you take into account the negatives and such
so given original : y = x^2
move to left 2
then it would become y = (x - (-2))^2 --> y = (x + 2)^2

Answer 16

Wow.. very smart! ;D

Answer 17

not really :P shamil98 had to correct me on a question like that when I confused which translation was for which x or y value >,<
RagingSoulGoku, do you need to know translations across axis' as well?

Answer 18

Yes really! >:D hehe
Btw.. I passed my History test! :)

good for you! :D
