Question
**Initial Knowledge Check**

**Translate each graph as specified below.**

**(a) The graph of \(y = x^2\) is shown. Translate it to get the graph of \(y = (x - 4)^2\).**

- *Graph Description for Part (a)*: The graph is a standard parabola opening upwards, centered at the origin (0,0).

**(b) The graph of \(y = x^2\) is shown. Translate it to get the graph of \(y = x^2 + 2\).**

- *Graph Description for Part (b)*: The graph is a standard parabola opening upwards, centered at the origin (0,0).

*Translation Explanation*:
- For **(a)**: Translate the graph horizontally 4 units to the right.
- For **(b)**: Translate the graph vertically 2 units up.

The problem asks you to recognize how the basic parabola \(y = x^2\) shifts when modified by different translations, either horizontally or vertically, corresponding to changes in the equation's parameters.
