\n" ); document.write( "Suppose the graph of y = x^2 is shifted to obtain each the following graphs. What is the equation of the function, g(x), for each graph?
\n" ); document.write( "a)g(x) = (x + 1)^2 – 3
\n" ); document.write( "The (x+1) moves each point of y=x^2 one to the left
\n" ); document.write( "The -3 moves the result of the 1st move down three.
\n" ); document.write( "graph(400,300,-10,10,-10,10,(x+1)^2-3

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer: g(x) = (x – 4)^2 (horizontal shift right 4 units) Is this right???
\n" ); document.write( "Yes, that is correct.

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "b) If , what would the new coordinates of P be after the reflection? Give answer in (x, y) form.
\n" ); document.write( "Answer: That depends on what line you reflect in:
