Which of the following functions translates the graph of the parent function f(x)=x^2 horizontally left 8 units?
A. h(x)=x^2+8
B. h(x)=(x-8)^2
C. h(x)=x^2-8
D. h(x)=(x+8)^2

Respuesta :

Answer: (D) h(x)=(x+8)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

I’m not sure if it’s right, i’m taking the quiz rn so i’ll update if it is.

The new function will be y = x² -8, and third option is the correct answer.

What is a function?

It is an expression between an independent variable and dependent variable.

The function given in the question

y=x²

As the graph is shifted horizontally left the function will be given  by

y = (x-h)² +k

where k is y intercept

y = (x-0)² -8

y = x² -8

Therefore third option is the correct answer.
