Question

Write the transformations given the following quadratic equations 

**Equation:**

b. \( y = 3 + (x + 9)^2 \)

**Explanation:**

This equation represents a quadratic function in the form of a parabola. 

- **Vertex:** The vertex of this parabola can be found by considering the expression \((x + 9)^2\). The parabola shifts to the left by 9 units, with the vertex horizontally located at \(x = -9\).
  
- **Vertical Shift:** The entire graph is shifted upwards by 3 units because of the constant term \(+3\).

- **Opening Direction:** Since the coefficient of the \((x + 9)^2\) term is positive, the parabola opens upwards.

This function can be used to study the effects of horizontal and vertical transformations on parabolas.
