To factor this collect the like terms..2y would go with -7y to make -5y etc. Then factor the expression by factoring out 9 Your final answer should be 9(1-y+x^2)
If you need to simplify this calculate the sum or difference between numbers (3-1+7=9) Your final answer for this should be 9-9y+9x^2
The transformation being described is from g(x)=x2 g ( x ) = x 2 to f(x)=x2 f ( x ) = x 2 . The horizontal shift depends on the value of h . The horizontal shift is described as: f(x)=f(x+h) f ( x ) = f ( x + h ) - The graph is shifted to the left h units
