I just want to double check that I have this right. Write the new equation of the parabola
y=(x-3)^2-7 that is translated 4 units left, 5 units up & is compressed by a factor of 1/4
y=1/4(x+1)^2-2
Thanks a bunch :) ♡

looks good
y = f ( x + h )
translated left h units
In this case:
f ( x + 4 ) = ( x - 3 + 4 )² - 7 = ( x + 1 )² - 7
y = f ( x ) + k
translated up k units
In this case:
f ( x + 4 ) + k = f ( x + 4 ) - 7 + 5 = ( x + 1 )² - 7 + 5 = ( x + 1 )² - 2
y = ( 1 / m )· f ( x )
compressed vertically by a factor of 1 / m
In this case:
( 1 / 4 )·( x + 1 )² - 2
f ( n· x ) compressed horizonally by a factor of 1 / n
In this case:
f ( 4· x ) = ( 4 x + 1 )² - 2
If your functions is translated 4 units left, 5 units up and compressed vertically by a factor of 1 / 4 then:
( 1 / 4 )·( x + 1 )² - 2
If your functions is translated 4 units left, 5 units up and compressed horizonally by a factor of 1 / 4 then:
( 4 x + 1 )² - 2
translated left h units
In this case:

y = f ( x ) + k
translated up k units
In this case:
f ( x + 4 ) + k = f ( x + 4 ) - 7 + 5 = ( x + 1 )² - 7 + 5 = ( x + 1 )² - 2

Thanks guys!:)
