The parent function for quadratic equations is as followed:

where a and b represent vertical and horizontal stretches, respectively, h is the horizontal shift, and k is the vertical shift.
So going from

to

,
We are shifting 1 to the left and 6 up.
The horizontal shift is in the negative direction because in the equation, h=-1 because:
The answer is A.
-4 + -7= -11
When adding negative numbers if the are both negative then you add them. When you have a negative and a positive you subtract. In this problem they just took out the plus sign.
