The given function, f(x) = (x + 6)^2 - 2, is obtained by taking the parent function of f(x) = x^2 and performing two transformations: a horizontal shift left 6 units and a vertical shift down 2 units.
Therefore, the correct answer is C) Horizontal shift left 6, vertical shift down 2.
Given f(x) = (x + 6)^2 -2, how did we transform from the parent function?
A) Horizontal shift right 6, vertical shift up 2
B) Horizontal shift left 6, vertical shift up 2
C) Horizontal shift left 6, vertical shift down 2
D) Horizontal shift right 6, vertical shift down 2
