You’ll leave with these skills
01Find where a shifted parabola’s lowest point ends upMove the low point left or right by the number inside the parentheses and up or down by the number added at the end.
02Tell which way a graph shifts from its equationShift the graph the opposite way from the sign of the number inside the parentheses, so a minus sign there shifts it right.
03Find where a known point lands on a shifted graphMove a known point left or right by the number inside the parentheses and up or down by the number outside to find it on the new graph.
04Check the direction of a shift in DesmosType the original function and the shifted version into Desmos and compare where their low points sit.
