1 Answer

Mar 1, 2017

#y=(x-3)^2+1#

Explanation:

In general if a function is translated #a# units right and #b# units up we can summaries this as:

#f(x)" translated by " ((a),(b))rarrf(x-a)+b#

so #" "Y=x^2" translated by 3 units right, " 1 " unit up"#

#Y=x^2 " translated by "((3),(1))rarry=(x-3)^2+1#
