Q. What kind of transformation converts the graph of f(x)=−10(x−3)2+5 into the graph of g(x)=−10(x−3)2−3?Choices:(A) translation 8 units down(B) translation 8 units left(C) translation 8 units up(D) translation 8 units right
Find Vertex:f(x)=−10(x−3)2+5Find the vertex of the given function.Compare f(x)=−10(x−3)2+5 with vertex form.Vertex of f(x): (3,5)
Compare with Vertex Form:g(x)=−10(x−3)2−3Find the vertex of the transformed function.Compare g(x)=−10(x−3)2−3 with vertex form.Vertex of g(x): (3,−3)
Find Transformed Vertex: We found:Vertex of f(x)=(3,5)Vertex of g(x)=(3,−3)Is the transformation horizontal or vertical?Since the x-values of the vertices are the same and the y-values have changed, the transformation is vertical.
Identify Transformation Type: We have:Vertex of f(x)=(3,5)Vertex of g(x)=(3,−3)Did f(x) shift up or down to become g(x)?The y-coordinates of the vertices are 5 and −3 respectively.On a number line, −3 lies below 5.f(x) shifts downwards.
Determine Direction of Shift: We found that f(x) shifts downwards.Identify the transformation from (3,5) to (3,−3).∣5−(−3)∣=∣8∣=8The graph of f(x) shifts 8 units down.
