Question of the Day

Refer to the coordinate plane showing quadratic function g(x)g(x)g(x). If the vertex of this parabola is moved 3 units to the right and 2 units up, what would be the new coordinates of the vertex?

  1. (−2,1)(-2, 1)(−2,1)
  2. (4,−1)(4, -1)(4,−1)
  3. (4,1)(4, 1)(4,1)
  4. (2,−1)(2, -1)(2,−1)

Explanation: From the graph, the current vertex is at (1, -1). Moving 3 units to the right means adding 3 to the x-coordinate: 1 + 3 = 4. Moving 2 units up means adding 2 to the y-coordinate: -1 + 2 = 1. Therefore, the new vertex would be at (4, 1). Choice A incorrectly subtracts instead of adds. Choice B correctly moves right but fails to move up. Choice D incorrectly moves only 1 unit right.
