Given the function f(x) defined as:


f(x)=x^2

We need to obtain the graph after performing two shifts: 1 unit up and 2 units left. For the first shift, we do the transformation:


f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+1

Now, for the second shift:


f(x)\rightarrow f(x+2)

Combining these transformations:


\begin{gathered} f(x)\rightarrow f(x+2)+1 \\ \therefore f(x)=(x+2)^2+1 \end{gathered}
