How is the graph of #h(x)=2-x^2# related to the graph of #f(x)=x^2#? Algebra Quadratic Equations and Functions Quadratic Functions and Their Graphs 1 Answer Alan P. Nov 19, 2017 #h(x)=2-x^2# is the graph of #f(x)=x^2# reflected in the X-axis and then shifted up #2# units. Explanation: If #f(x)=x^2# then #g(x)=-x^2# is the reflection of #f(x)# in the X-axis and #h(x)=2-x^2# is (g(x)# shifted up #2# units Answer link Related questions What are the important features of the graphs of quadratic functions?
