1) Translate the given parabola 3 units up. The vertex moves from (0, -2) to (0, 1). The shape and orientation remain unchanged.
2) Translate the given parabola 2 units down. The vertex moves from (0, 3) to (0, 1). The shape and orientation remain unchanged.
3) Translate the given parabola 5 units left. The vertex moves from (2, -1) to (-3, -1). The shape and orientation remain unchanged.
4) Translate the given parabola 1 unit right. The vertex moves from (-1, 0) to (0, 0). The shape and orientation remain unchanged.
5) Translate the given parabola 4 units down. The vertex moves from (0, 2) to (0, -2). The shape and orientation remain unchanged.
6) Translate the given parabola 6 units up. The vertex moves from (0, -4) to (0, 2). The shape and orientation remain unchanged.
