Describe how the graph of y= x2 can be transformed to the graph of the given equation. (2 points) y = x2 - 20

Shift the graph of y = x2 left 20 units.
Shift the graph of y = x2 up 20 units.
Shift the graph of y = x2 down 20 units.
Shift the graph of y = x2 right 20 units.

Equation : y = x2 - 20

Intercepts

when y is zero (0), x is 10

when x is zero (0), y is -20

Therefore, shift the graph, y=2x down to the negative y-axis 20 units

ALTERNATIVELY: Shift the graph to the right of positive x-axis 10 units.

r(0,90)(x,y) . t(-5,0)

last option

step-by-step explanation:

∆def to ∆d"e"f"

- rotate 90 counterclockwise degrees

- then translated 5 to the left (x --> x - 5)

answer is the last option
