Question

A quadratic function y=f(x) is plotted on a graph in the vertex of the resulting parabola is (5,-5). what is the vertex of the function defined as g(x) = f(x+3)

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

(2, -5)

Explanation:

Using x+3 in place of x causes the function graph to be shifted left 3 units. That is, 3 is subtracted from each x-coordinate.

The vertex coordinates (5, -5) get translated to (5-3, -5) = (2, -5).
