Question

Ava graphs the function h(x) = x2 + 4. Victor graphs the function g(x) = (x + 4)2. Which statements are true regarding the two graphs? Select three options.

Answer 1

Using translation concepts, the correct statements are given as follows:

• Ava's graph is vertical translation of x².

• Ava's graph has a y-intercept of 4.

• Victor's graph moves 4 units from f(x) = x² in a positive direction.

What is a translation?

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction either in it’s definition or in it’s domain. Examples are shift left/right or bottom/up, vertical or horizontal stretching or compression, and reflections over the x-axis or the y-axis.

Ava's graph is given by:

h(x) = x² + 4.

It is a vertical translation of 4 units of f(x) = x², as the change was in the range of the function. Hence, it has a y-intercept of f(0) = 0² + 4 = 4.

Victor's graph is given by:

g(x) = (x + 4)²

Which means that it moves 4 units from f(x) = x² in a positive direction.
