To translate the vertex of the quadratic function from the point (-3, -2) to the point (0, 0), we need to determine how many units to shift both horizontally and vertically.
- Horizontal Shift: From -3 to 0, we need to shift 3 units to the right.
- Vertical Shift: From -2 to 0, we need to shift 2 units up.
Thus, the correct transformation is:
Shift right 3 units and up 2 units.
So, the answer is:
shift right 3 units and up 2 units.
