Write the equation of g(x) in vertex form. The parent function f(x)=x^2 is stretched by a factor of two, translated three units right and one unit down.

Answer 1

HI Parker:

1) vertex form is: a(x - k)² + h

2) strech by a factor of 2, then a= 2

3) translated 3 units to the right, then k = 3

4) translated down by 1 unit, then h = -1

5) g(x) = 2(x-3)² - 1

I hope this helped! If you have further questions please feel free to reach out again ! Mary Aoun
