is the graph of y = –4x2 – 5 different from the graph of y = –4x2?

a
It is shifted 5 unit(s) left.
b
It is shifted 5 unit(s) up.
c
It is shifted 5 unit(s) right.
d
It is shifted 5 unit(s) down.

1 answer

The equation y = -4x^2 - 5 is different from y = -4x^2 because it is shifted 5 units down. So the correct answer is d. It is shifted 5 unit(s) down.
