\begin{gathered} g(x)=(x-3)^2+5 \\ h(x)=(x+10)^2+5 \end{gathered}

1) Let's tackle this question keeping in mind that we are dealing with transformations of a parent function x²

A) Let's consider the given function:


f(x)=x^2+5

Since we were told to shift to the right 3 then we have to write on the variable x² a subtraction of 3 units, so we got:


y=(x-3)^2+5

This gives a horizontal shift to the right.

B) Now, the next step is to shift that given function 10 units to the left, in this case, we need to add 10 units:


y=(x+10)^2+5

Those are the answers
