Q. 3939. The graph of g(x)=3(x4)2+5 g(x)=-3(x-4)^{2}+5 is translated 66 units left and 99 units down. What is the value of h h when the equation of the transformed graph is written in vertex form?\newline(A) 4-4\newline(B) 2-2\newline(C) 22\newline(D) 1010
  1. Identify Vertex Form and Vertex: Identify the original vertex form and the vertex of g(x)g(x).\newlineOriginal vertex form: g(x)=3(x4)2+5g(x) = -3(x - 4)^2 + 5\newlineVertex: (4,5)(4, 5)
  2. Apply Translation to Vertex: Apply the translation to the vertex.\newlineTranslation: 66 units left and 99 units down.\newlineNew vertex: (46,59)=(2,4)(4 - 6, 5 - 9) = (-2, -4)
  3. Write New Vertex Form: Write the new vertex form using the new vertex.\newlineNew vertex form: g(x)=3(x(2))24g(x) = -3(x - (-2))^2 - 4\newlineSimplified: g(x)=3(x+2)24g(x) = -3(x + 2)^2 - 4
  4. Identify Value of h: Identify the value of h from the new vertex form.\newlineFrom g(x)=3(x+h)2+kg(x) = -3(x + h)^2 + k, h=2h = 2
