Answer:
g ( x ) = 4x^2 + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
The translation of a function f ( x ) in the cartesian coordinate domain can be done by following the given guidelines:
Translation guidelines
Horizontal shifts
- Right : f ( x ) -> f ( x - a )
- Left : f ( x ) - > f ( x + a )
Vertical shifts
- Up : f ( x ) -> f ( x ) + b
- Down : f ( x ) - > f ( x ) - b
General shift ( Horizontal and Vertical shift )
f ( x ) - > f ( x ± a ) ± b
We are given a function f ( x ) which is to be translated vertically upward 4 units. We will use the guidelines for Vertical shifts, where in this case the magnitude of b = 4.
f ( x ) = 4x^2 + 6
f ( x ) - > f ( x ) + b
g ( x ) = f ( x ) + 4
g ( x ) = 4x^2 + 6 + 4
g ( x ) = 4x^2 + 10 ... Answer
