In the function Y - 3 = 2 (x - 1) ^2 what effect does the number 1 have on

the graph, as compared to the graph of y=x^2?

A. It shifts the graph 1 unit to the left.

B. It shifts the graph up 1 unit.

C. It shifts the graph 1 unit to the right.

D. It shifts the graph down 1 unit.

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a function be "f (x) ", we can understand vertical and horizontal shifts by seeing the properties below:

f (x-a) is original shifted a units horizontally right f (x+a) is original shifted a units horizontally left f (x) + b is original shifted b units vertically upwards f (x) - b is original shifted b units vertically downwards

The "1" in the problem is within "x", which means f (x) became f (x-1).

This goes with first rule, which is horizontal shift right of 1 units.

That is the correct answer is C
