Final answer:

The function g(x) is a translated version of f(x) = x^2 with a vertex at (-2, 1), which gives us the equation g(x) = (x + 2)^2 + 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

When given a function f(x) = x^2, which is a basic quadratic function, and an indication that function g is a translated version of f(x), we can deduce the equation of g(x) by considering the given vertex of g, which is (-2, 1). To shift the parabola f(x) = x^2 to the left by 2 units and up by 1 unit, we apply horizontal and vertical transformations to the equation of f(x). This results in g(x) = (x + 2)^2 + 1. This equation represents a parabola that has been shifted to the left by 2 units (indicated by x + 2) and up by 1 unit (indicated by + 1).
