Write h(x) = x2 – 4x – 3 in vertex form and then identify the transformations of its graph. the function h written in vertex form is h(x) = (x – )2 + . to graph the function h, shift the graph of f = x2 right units and down units.

Step-by-step explanation: Given function f(x)=

We need to write it in vertex from.

In order to write it in vertex form, we need to find the values of a, b and c for the given quadratic function.

a=1, b=-4 and x=3.

x-coordinate of the vertex = -b/2a = - (-4)/2(1) = 4/2 = 2.

Plugging x=2 in given function to get the value of y-coordinate of the vertex.

Therefore, we got vertex (h,k) at (2,-7)

Plugging values of a, h and k in vertex form

.

Given parent function

According to rules of transformations,

y=f(x-m) will translate m units right and

y= f(x) - n will translate n units down.
