Math Problem Statement

The graph shows g(x), which is a translation of f(x)=x2. Write the function rule for g(x).Write your answer in the form

a

(

x

h

)

2

k

,

where

a

,

h

,

and

k

are integers or simplified fractions.

Solution

In order to find the function rule for g(x)g(x), which is a translation of the parent function f(x)=x2f(x) = x^2, we can use the general form of a translated quadratic function:

g(x)=a(xh)2+kg(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k

Where:

  • aa represents a vertical stretch or compression and reflection.
  • hh represents a horizontal shift (left or right).
  • kk represents a vertical shift (up or down).

To determine aa, hh, and kk, we need to analyze the graph of g(x)g(x). Since you mentioned the graph, could you please upload it? That will allow me to extract the necessary information to write the function rule accurately.
