Q. What kind of transformation converts the graph of f(x)=−7(x−2)2−4 into the graph of g(x)=−7(x−2)2+5?Choices:(A) translation 9 units right(B) translation 9 units up(C) translation 9 units left(D) translation 9 units down
Find Vertex:f(x)=−7(x−2)2−4Find the vertex of the given function.Compare f(x)=−7(x−2)2−4 with vertex form.Vertex of f(x): (2,−4)
Compare with Vertex Form:g(x)=−7(x−2)2+5Find the vertex of the transformed function.Compare g(x)=−7(x−2)2+5 with vertex form.Vertex of g(x): (2,5)
Find Transformed Vertex: We found:Vertex of f(x)=(2,−4)Vertex of g(x)=(2,5)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: We have:Vertex of f(x)=(2,−4)Vertex of g(x)=(2,5)Did f(x) shift up or down to become g(x)?The y-coordinate of the vertex of g(x) is higher than that of f(x).f(x) shifts upwards.
Shift Direction: We found that f(x) shifts upwards.Identify the transformation from (−4) to (5).∣5−(−4)∣=∣9∣=9The graph of f(x) shifts 9 units up.
