\(g(x)=x^{2}-5\)
Explicación
## Step 1The problem asks us to find the function \(g(x)\), which is the translation of the function \(f(x)=x^{2}\) 5 units down. ## Step 2The general form of a quadratic function is \(a(x-h)^{2}+k\), where
,
, and
are integers. In this case,
is the coefficient of the
term,
is the horizontal shift, and
is the vertical shift.## Step 3The function \(f(x)=x^{2}\) is a basic quadratic function with
, and
. ## Step 4When we translate this function 5 units down, the value of
decreases by 5. So,
becomes -5.## Step 5Therefore, the function \(g(x)\) is
translated 5 units down, which is \(g(x)=x^{2}-5
