Question

How is the graph of y=(x+1)^2-9 transformed from the graph of y=x^2? a shifted 1 unit left and 9 units up b shifted 1 unit right and 9 units up c shifted 1 unit left and 9 units down d shifted 1 unit right and 9 units down

Answer 1

Explanation:

Due to the '+1', the graoph of x^2 is shifted 1 unit to the left. The '+9' results in the entire graph being shifted downward 9 units.
