Describing Transformations of Quadratic Function in Vertex Form

What is the vertex form of a quadratic function?

• f(x) = 2a(x-h)² + k

• f(x) = a(x-h)² + k

• f(x) = (x+h)² + k

• f(x) = a(x-h) - k

Identify the vertex of f(x) = 5(x+6)² - 7

• (5,6)

• (0,0)

• (6,-7)

• (-6,-7)

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

• Shifted down 4 units

• Shifted left 4 units

• Shifted right 4 units

• Shifted up 4 units

What steps transform the graph y = x² to y = x² + 8

• shifted up 8 units

• shifted down 8 units

• shifted left 8 units

• shifted right 8 units

What steps transform the graph y = x² to y = 2(x+2)² - 5?

• Compress by 2, shifted 2 units left and 5 down

• Stretch by 5, shifted 5 units left and 2 down

• Stretch by 2, shifted 2 units left and 5 down

• Compress by 5, shifted 2 units left and 2 down
