Question

Describe how the graph of y= x^2 can be transformed to the graph of the given equation.

y = x^2 - 12

Answer 1

So as we can see...when we subtract a number from the function..we are moving the entire function down "number" units

So here....to get from y = x^2 to y = x^2 - 12

We just need to move the graph of y = x^2 down 12 units

Answer 2
