Question 9(Multiple Choice Worth 4 points)
(02.05 LC)
Which of the following statements best describes the effect of replacing the
graph of y = f(x) with the graph of y = f(x - 9)?
The graph of y = f(x) will shift up 9 units.
The graph of y = f(x) will shift down 9 units.
The graph of y = f(x) will shift left 9 units.
The graph of y = f(x) will shift right 9 units.

Respuesta :

Answer:  D) right 9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The Vertex form of a quadratic equation is: y = a(x - h)² + k     where

  • a is the vertical stretch or shrink
  • (x, h) is the vertex

        → h is the horizontal shift (+ is right, - is left)

        → k is the vertical shift (+ is up, - is down)

y = f(x - 9)

            ↓

           h=9

Since h is positive, the graph moves 9 units to the RIGHT
