Answer:

f(x) is a parabola with a vertex at (0, 0) that opens up

g(x) is a parabola with a vertex at (0, 2) that opens up

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic equation:  [tex]y = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]

The graph of a quadratic equation is a parabola.  The value of [tex]a[/tex]determines its orientation.

If [tex]a>0[/tex] then the parabola opens upwards and its vertex is its minimum point.  

If [tex]a<0[/tex] then the parabola opens downwards and its vertex is its maximum point.

Given:

  • f(x) = x²
  • g(x) = x² + 2

⇒ g(x) = f(x) + 2

So the transformation of f(x) to g(x) is an upward shift of 2 units, or

a translation of f(x) by the vector [tex]\left(\begin{array}{ccc}0\\2\end{array}\right)[/tex].

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the vertex of g(x) will be 2 units more than the y-coordinate of the vertex of f(x).

Therefore,

  • f(x) is a parabola that opens upwards with a vertex at (0, 0)
  • g(x) s a parabola that opens upwards with a vertex at (0, 2)
