Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the equation of the most basic parabola is y = x^2.
The first illustration shows a parabola that has been translated two units to the right. Modify the basic equation as follows:
y = x^2 => y = (x - 2)^2.
The second illustration is similar, except that the graph of y = x^2 has been translated 2 units to the left:
y = x^2 => y = (x + 2)^2
