Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a function of a parabola (quadratic) in the form f(x) = x^2, we have a translated function as:
g(x) = a(x-b)^2
Where
- a is the vertical compression or stretch. If a > 1, it is a vertical stretch and if 0 < a < 1, it is a vertical compression.
- b is the horizontal translation b units to the right
The function given is p(x) = 3(x-8)^2
So it means that it is a vertical stretch with a factor 3 and the graph is shifted horizontally 8 units right
the correct answer is B
