b)

From this graph, we can see the vertex is (0,6). So this means h=0 and k=6

So we'll follow the same routine as we did for part a)

Start with the general equation in vertex form. In this case, a=1

Plug in h=0 and k=6.

Rewrite as .

So the equation of the parabola that has been shifted 6 units up is
