Answer:

D) Translation 2 units to the left

Explanation:

Remember that in a function, what you do inside the parent function is going to change the horizontal movement of the graph. Here, since 2 is added inside the parent function x^2, this shows us that the graph moves 2 to the left.

Now you might be wondering why it's not 2 to the right. This is because the equation is in the form of
y=(x-h)^2+k, so if
h=-2, that means
x-(-2)=x+2
