Answer:

• Horizontal translation right 2 units

,

• Vertical Translation down 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the parent function x²

If we translate the parent function by a horizontal translation right 2 units, we have:


(x-2)^2

If we carry out a Vertical Translation down 5 units, we then have:


f(x)=(x-2)^2-5
