HELP QUICK! A parabola, (y + 2)2 = 8(x - 3), is changed to (y + 10)2 = 8(x - 3). How will this affect the graph of the parabola?
A)
The vertex will shift up.
B)
The vertex will shift down.
C)
The vertex will shift to the left.
D)
The vertex will shift to the right.

B) The vertex will shift down.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation of a parabola, (y - k)² = 4p(x - h), (h, k) is the vertex.

The original parabola's vertex was (3, -2).

In the new parabola, the y-coordinate changed to -10, making the new vertex (3, -10).

So, the parabola's vertex shifted down 8 units from -2 to -10.

in the attachment.   i didn't see your choices.   the word which means there is choices.

step-by-step explanation:

(x,y)

x tells you how much left or right you go from the origin

y tells you how much down or up you go from the origin

so for example (-3,2), you go left 3 and up twice. i denoted which of the ordered pairs is which in my graph.

1. perpendicular

2. parallel

3. perpendicular
