Question

The graph of y = x^2 has been translated 7 units to the left. The equation of the resulting parabola is _____.

Answer 1

Answer:

$y=(x+7)^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=x^2$ is the parent function.

Parent function is translated 7 units to the left

f(x)---> f(x-h), where f(x) is translated h units to the right

f(x)---> f(x+h), where f(x) is translated h units to the left

When the number is added with x then the graph will be translated to the left

Parent function is translated 7 units to the left

Add 7 with x

$y=x^2$

$y=(x+7)^2$

Answer 2

Move c  units to left means add c to every x

move 7 so add 7 to every x

y=(x+7)^2
