To find the value of h when the transformed graph is written in vertex form.
Answer to Problem 49PFA
Value of h is
Explanation of Solution
Given information :
The parent graph is given by the function
Function of a parabola in vertex form is given by the notation:
Here, h and k are the x and y coordinates of the vertex. This the parent function is
Now, this function is moved 4 units to the left as well as it is reflected along the x-axis.
Thus the function would become
Hence the parabola becomes downward facing and the maximum is the vertex, denoted by
