Question

Function p(x), shown below, is translated 10 units up to create function q(x).

Answer 1

Answer: q(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 70

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k   where a is the vertical stretch and (h, k) is the vertex.

Which coordinate shifts the graph up? The y-coordinate for the vertex is k.

p(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 60

q(x) = 0.005(x - 40)² + 60 + 10

       = 0.005(x - 40)² + 70
