to apply a vertical translation we changed the value of k, which is the y-value of the vertex of the quadratic equation.

Then the correct option is the second one.

What will cause a vertical translation?

First, remember that for a general function f(x) we define a vertical translation of N units as:

g(x) = f(x) + N

  • If N > 0, the translation is upwards.
  • If N < 0, the translation is downwards.

In this case, we have the function:

f(x) = (x - h)^2 + k

If we apply a vertical translation of N units, then we get the new function:

f'(x) = (x - h)^2 + k + N

Now we have two constants, we can define:

k ' = k + N

Then the new quadratic function is:

f'(x) = (x - h)^2 + k'

So, as you can see, to apply a vertical translation we changed the value of k, which is the y-value of the vertex of the quadratic equation.

Then the correct option is the second one.
