The graph of which function is a translation of the graph of f(x)=x squared.

Question

Five units to the right? A: G(x)=x squared - 5 B: = g(x)=(x-5)squared C: g(x)= (x+5) squared D: g(x)=x squared+5 

 

 

 P.s It did not fit in the question summary.

Answer 1

To shift the graph of y = x² horizontally five units to the right, you need to subtract 5 within the function's argument.

 

The correct choice is y = (x - 5)²

 

This moves the vertex from (0, 0) to (5, 0)
