The standard form of a quadratic function presents the function in the form

the basic parabola graph of f(x)=x^2 is horizontally shifted left (h < 0) and right (h > 0)
vertically shifted up (k > 0) or shift it down (k < 0) .
1. The graph of shifted units to the right and units upward.
if shifted units to the right =>
if shifted units upward=>




2. the graph of shifted units to the left and units downward.
units to the left =>
units downward=>





3. the graph of units to the left and units downward.
units to the left =>
units downward=>

y = -1/2 * x^2 becomes y = -1/2 * (x-3)^2 + 3
here's the graph.


y = -4 * x^2 becomes y = -4 * (x+8)^2 - 4
here's the graph.


y = 3/4 * x^2 becomes y = 3/4 * (x+2)^2 - 2
here's the graph.


i believe these are called transformations.

here's a reference on transformations.

here's another one.

just go to the internet and do a search on algebra transformations and a whole bunch will pop up.
