Finally, we examined the transformations that occurred with the new function compared to the parent of y = x^2, looking at the effects of a, h and k on our parabola, making connections to what we already learned from transformations with absolute value functions. Also, we talked about the domain and range of the function.
Then we used https://www.desmos.com/calculator to verify the vertex and graphs we made.
