Question

If the graph of the quadratic parent function q(x) = x2 is translated 3 units to the right and 2 units down, which of the following equations describes the translated graph?

Answer 1

s(x) = (x - 3)^2 - 2

Explanation:

q(x) = x^2 becomes r(x) = (x - 3)^2 after a 3-units-to-the-right translation.

This, in turn, becomes s(x) = (x - 3)^2 - 2, after a 2-units-down translation.

Next time, please share the answer choices. Thank you.
