Question

If you shift the quadratic parent function, f(x) = x^2, right 10 units, what is the equation of the new function?

A. g(x) = x² - 10
B. g(x) = (x - 10)^2
C. g(x) = x^2 + 10
D. g(x) = (x+10)^2​

Answer 1

Answer: B.) g(x)= (x-10)^2

Answer 2

If you shift function f(x) a units right you'll get f(x-a) function.

So if you have f(x) = x², you'll get f(x-10) = (x-10)² - answer B

other formulas:

a units left: f(x+a)

a units up: f(x)+a

a units down: f(x)-a
