What steps transform the graph y = x² to y = (x-4)²

• Shifted down 4 units

• Shifted left 4 units

In the graph of the function y=x², which describes a vertical shift in the parent function up 5 units?

• y = x² - 5
• y = x² + 5
• y = (x - 5)²
• y = (x + 5)²

If the blue is f(x)=x^2, then the red must be

• g(x)=x²-5
• g(x)=x²+5
• g(x)=(x-5)²
• g(x)=(x+5)²

If the blue is f(x)=x^2, the red must be

• g(x)=(x+3)²
• g(x)=(x-3)²
• g(x)=x²+3
• g(x)=x²-2

How did we transform from y=x^2?

y = -3x²

• vertical reflection and vertical shift down

• vertical reflection and vertical stretch

• horizontal stretch

• vertical reflection and vertical compression

• The graph of g(x) is wider than the graph of f(x)

• The graph of g(x) is narrower than the graph of f(x)

• The graph of g(x) is shifted 5 units up above f(x)

• The graph of g(x) is shifted 5 units down below f(x)
