Without graphing the function, state the shift(s) that are applied to the graph of f(x) = x2 to graph the given function. If
the graph of f(x) = x2 must be rotated about the x-axis, state this.
-$$f ( x ) = ( x - 6 ) ^ { 2 } - 15$$
A) left 15 units, down 6 units
B) right 15 units, down 6 units
C) left 6 units, down 15 units
D) right 6 units, down 15 units

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The function $f(x) = (x - 6)^2 - 15$ represents a shift of the graph of $f(x) = x^2$ to the right by 6 units and down by 15 units.

Without Graphing the Function, State the Shift(s) That Are Applied f(x)=(x−6)2−15f ( x ) = ( x - 6 ) ^ { 2 } - 15f(x)=(x−6)2−15

Without Graphing the Function, State the Shift(s) That Are Applied $f ( x ) = ( x - 6 ) ^ { 2 } - 15$
