Answer:
f(x) = (x + 1)^2 + 2
Explanation:
A parabola function has different forms:
standard form: f(x) = ax + bx + c^2
vertex form: f(x) = a (x − h)^2 + k
Our equation that includes a horizontal translation is h
- negative h shifts right
- positive h shifts left
this graph shows a shift to the left by 1 so h = 1
Our equation that includes a vertical translation is k
- negative k shifts down
- positive k shifts up
this graph shows a shift to the up by 2 so k = 2
- a represents a compression / stretch which seems not to be in this graph
combine, f(x) = (x + 1)^2 + 2
