Question 3
Move the sliders $h$ and $k$ so that the graph of $y=x^{2}$ gets shifted up units and to the right 2 units. Then type the new function, $f(x)$ in the answer box
Don't forget to shift the graph.
Using function notation, i.e. $f(x)=$, enter the function that results from the transformation.
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the Original Function
The original function given is \( f(x) = x^2 \).
Step 2: Determine the Transformations
The problem states that the graph of \( y = x^2 \) needs to be shifted up 8 units and to the right 2 units.
Step 3: Apply the Vertical Shift
Shifting the graph up 8 units means adding 8 to the function:
\[ f(x) = x^2 + 8 \]
Step 4: Apply the Horizontal Shift
Shifting the graph to the right 2 units means replacing \( x \) with \( (x - 2) \):
\[ f(x) = (x - 2)^2 + 8 \]
Final Answer
The transformed function is:
\[ f(x) = (x - 2)^2 + 8 \]
