Section 2.1
(5 - 8)

I say graph (a) describes function 6. As we can see, (x + 1), means to move the parabola one unit left. Of course, - 2, means to move the graph down 2 units.

I say graph (b) describes function 5. As we can see, y = x^2 is moved down 2 units.

I say graph (c) describes function 7. I know that
(x - 4) means to move the parabola 4 units to the right. The negative in front means to inverse the function.

Of course, we can safely say graph (d) matches with function 8.

You say?

 

correct

 

By the way, I learning a lot of math with your help. We both know that all this work is just for fun and to keep the brain functioning. Too late at 56 to be a math teacher.
