\(g(x) = (x + 5)^2\)
Explicación
## Step 1The problem asks us to find the function \(g(x)\), which is a translation of the function \(f(x) = x^2\) by 5 units to the right. ## Step 2The general form of a quadratic function is \(a(x-h)^2 + k\), where
,
, and
are integers. In this form,
represents the horizontal shift of the graph. If
is positive, the graph shifts to the right; if
is negative, the graph shifts to the left.## Step 3In this case asked to shift the graph of \(f(x) = x^2\) 5 units to the right. This means we need to replace
with -5 in the general form of the quadratic function.## Step 4The function \(f(x) = x^2\) has no vertical shift, so
.## Step 5The coefficient
in the general form of the quadratic function is the same as the coefficient of
in the original function \(f(x) = x^2\), which is 1.## Step 6Substituting
,
, and
into the quadratic function, we get \(g(x) = 1(x - (-5))^2 + 0\).## Step 7Simplifying the above expression, we get \(g(x) = (x + 5)^2\).
