Question
can anyone state the equation of the parent function and state the transformations in proper order please
![**Function and Transformations**
The given function is:
\[ f(x) = 2(x - 4)^2 + 2 \]
**Parent Function:**
The parent function for this quadratic function is:
\[ f(x) = x^2 \]
**Transformations:**
1. **Horizontal Shift**: The function \( (x - 4) \) inside the squared term indicates a horizontal shift. Here, it moves the graph to the right by 4 units.
2. **Vertical Stretch**: The coefficient 2 outside the squared term (multiplied by the squared term) is a vertical stretch of the graph by a factor of 2.
3. **Vertical Shift**: The constant term +2 outside the squared term indicates a vertical shift upwards by 2 units.
In summary, the graph of the original parent function \( f(x) = x^2 \) is horizontally shifted 4 units to the right, vertically stretched by a factor of 2, and then shifted upwards by 2 units to obtain the graph of \( f(x) = 2(x - 4)^2 + 2 \).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F4a15d03a-cf19-479c-9f1f-b178583254bd%2F61d18d5e-ee4c-4fd0-9159-8e3915acf4f0%2Fw920p2_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
