On a coordinate plane, two parabolas open up. The solid-line parabola, labeled f of x, goes through (negative 2, 4), has a vertex at (0, 0), and goes through (2, 4). The dashed-line parabola, labeled g of x, goes through (3, 6), has a vertex at (5, 2), and goes through (7, 6). What is the equation of the translated function, g(x), if f(x) = x2? g(x) = (x + 5)2 + 2 g(x) = (x + 2)2 + 5 g(x) = (x – 2)2 + 5 g(x) = (x – 5)2 + 2

Answer:

Option 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a parabola is

[tex]g(x)=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]                    ... (1)

where, a is a constant (h,k) is vertex.

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=x^2[/tex]

The vertex of the function is (0,0) and it goes through (-2, 4) and (2, 4).

It is given that the vertex of function g(x) is at (5,2).

Substitute h=5 and k=2 in equation.

[tex]g(x)=a(x-5)^2+2[/tex]

g(x) is passes through (3, 6).

[tex]6=a(3-5)^2+2[/tex]             .... (2)

[tex]6-2=4a[/tex]

[tex]4=4a[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4.

[tex]a=1[/tex]

Substitute a=1 in equation (2).

[tex]g(x)=1(x-5)^2+2[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=(x-5)^2+2[/tex]

The function g(x) is [tex]g(x)=(x-5)^2+2[/tex].

Therefor, the correct option is 4.

The equation of the considered parabola represented by g is given as:

[tex]g(x) = (x - 5)^2 + 2[/tex]

Thus, Option 4:   [tex]g(x) = (x-5)^2 + 2[/tex] is correct.

Given that:

  • [tex]f(x) = x^2[/tex]
  • g(x) passes through (3,6), (7,6)
  • The parabola represented by g(x) has vertex at (5,2)

Explanation and formation of equation:

The parabola [tex]y = a (x-h)^2 + k[/tex] has vertex at [tex](h,k)[/tex]

For our case, putting value of h and k, we get:

[tex]g(x) = a(x - 5)^2 + 2[/tex]

Since the parabola passes through (3,6), thus it must satisfy the equation of parabola. Thus,

[tex]6 = a(3-5)^2 + 2\\6 = a \times 4 + 2\\4 = 4a\\a = 1[/tex]

Thus, equation of the considered parabola represented by g is given as:

[tex]g(x) = (x - 5)^2 + 2[/tex]
