Question

Which function could be represented by the graph on the coordinate plane? 1. F(x) = (x-8)^2 + 6 2. F(x) = (x+8)^2 + 6 3. F(x) = (x+8)^2 - 6 4. F(x) = (x-8)^2-6

Answer 1

Answer:

  4.  F(x) = (x -8)^2 -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The function ...

  f(x) = (x -h)^2 +k

shifts the parent function h units to the right and k units up. Here, the parent function is shifted right and down, so h > 0, k < 0. This matches choice 4.

  F(x) = (x -8)^2 -6
