You start with the basic y=x^2.
That’s the parabola with a vertex at (0,0), opening up, etc.

The transformation aspect is the “+7” portion. This “+7” shifts the entire graph of y=x^2 up by 7 units.
The vertex is now (0,7), it still opens up, etc.

It’s kind of a silly question for your teacher to ask when the graph given only goes up to 6.
