A translation is a movement of the graph either horizontally parallel to the \(x\)-axis or vertically parallel to the \(y\)-axis. The graph of \(f(x) = x^2\) is the same as the graph of \(y = x^2\).

A translation is a shift of the graph either horizontally parallel to the \(x\)-axis or vertically parallel to the \(y\)-axis. If \(f(x) = x^2\), then \(f(x) + a = x^2 + a\). The value of \(a\) ...
