Respuesta :

Answer:

Vertically stretch by a factor of 2 and vertically shift down by 7 units.

The equation for this parabola is : [tex]y =2x^2- 7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A equation of parabola is: [tex]y =x^2[/tex]  

To do the transformation which includes a vertical stretch and a vertical shift.

Vertical stretch means when you multiply a function by a positive value k,

then you will be performing either a vertical compression or vertical stretching of the graph.

if 0<k<1 , then the graph have a vertical compression and

if k> 1 then the graph have  a vertical stretching.

Vertical shift states that for a function f(x) , a new function g(x) = f(x) + c where c is constant is a vertical shift of the function f(x).

If c is positive, the graph will shift up and

if k is negative, the graph will shift down.

From the figure,

we can say that the graph is vertically shift 7 units down

and the graph is vertically stretch by a factor of 2.

Therefore, the equation for the parabola shown in graph is :

[tex]y =2x^2- 7[/tex]
