Consider the parent quadratic function f(x) = x2.
Give the equation of a function that represents a vertical translation of the parent, that is, it has moved up or down. (Many correct examples are possible.)
Finally, give the equation of a reflection of the parent across the the x-axis. (Only one correct answer exists.)
f(x)=x+c, where c is an arbitrary constant. if c is positive then translation aboveĀ if c is negative then translation down reflection of f(x)=x^2 across x-axis thenĀ f(x)=-x^2
