Subtracting a number from x shifts the graph that may places tot he right
Subtracting a number at the end of the equation, shifts the graph that many units down.
The answer would be: Shift the graph of y = x^2 right 2 units and then down 10 units.
Answer:
a) 
b) 
c) 
d) 
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 
When factoring a binomial (a polynomial with two terms), what we will be looking for are the terms that are shared between them.
In this problem, it can be seen that both of these terms have and x. This means that we can factor it out to get

b) 
What are the common terms here?
It can be seen that each of these share a 2x, so our factored form would be

c) 
What about this one?
The common factor of this one is 5x, so our factored form would be

d) 
The common factor of this one is
, so our factored form would be

Problema Solution
You have 800 feet of fencing and you want to make two fenced in enclosures by splitting one enclosure in half. What are the largest dimensions of this enclosure that you could build?
Answer provided by our tutors
Make a drawing and denote:
x = half of the length of the enclosure
2x = the length of the enclosure
y = the width of the enclosure
P = 800 ft the perimeter
The perimeter of the two enclosures can be expressed P = 4x + 2y thus
4x + 3y = 800
Solving for y:

y = 800/3 - 4x/3
The area of the two enclosure is A = 2xy.
Substituting y = 800/3 - 4x/3 in A = 2xy we get
A = 2x(800/3 - 4x/3)
A =1600x/3 - 8x^2/3
We need to find the x for which the parabolic function A = (- 8/3)x^2 + (1600/3)x has maximum:
x max = -b/2a, a = (-8/3), b = 1600/3
x max = (-1600/3)/(2*(-8/3))
x max = 100 ft
y = 800/3 - 4*100/3
y = 133.33 ft
2x = 2*100
2x = 200 ft
