Quadratic Function Translation

How would you describe the translation from f(x)=x²  to  f(x)=x²+5 ?

• Horizontal translation: five units to the right

• Horizontal translation: five units to the left

• Vertical translation: five units up

• Vertical translation: five units down

What transformation has occurred from y = x²

• Right 2 and up 2

• Left 2 and up 2

• Right 2 and down 2

• Left 2 and down 2

Which equation below is a quadratic function translated up 5 units?

• y = x² + 5

• y = (x + 5)²

• y = 5x²

• y = -x² - 5

Which equation below is a quadratic function translated left 4 units?

• y = x² + 4

• y = (x + 4)²

• y = (x - 4)²

• y = 4x²

Match the equation to its description.

• Right 2 and up 2

• Left 2 and up 2

• Right 2 and down 2

• Left 2 and down 2
