Given:

The given parent function is
f(x)=x^2

We need to determine the equation of the new translated (shifted) function g(x).

Vertical stretch:

The general rule to shift the graph f(x), to shift c units upward is
g(x)=f(x)+c

From the graph, it is obvious that the graph f(x) is shifted 1 unit upwards.

Thus, applying the above rule, we get;


g(x)=x^2+1

Horizontal stretch:

The general rule to shift the graph f(x) to shift c units to the left is
g(x)=f(x+c)

From, the graph, it is obvious that the graph f(x) is shifted 2 units to the left.

Thus, applying the above rule, we have;


g(x)=(x+2)^2

Equation of the new function g(x):

From the figure, it is obvious that the graph g(x) is shifted 1 unit upwards and 2 units to the left.

Thus, we have;


g(x)=(x+2)^2+1

Therefore, the equation of the new function g(x) is
g(x)=(x+2)^2+1
