1) Translate the given parabola 3 units up by adding 3 to the y-coordinate of every point on the graph. The vertex moves from (0, -2) to (0, 1).
2) Translate the given parabola 2 units down by subtracting 2 from the y-coordinate of every point on the graph. The vertex moves from (0, 4) to (0, 2).
3) Translate the given parabola 5 units left by subtracting 5 from the x-coordinate of every point on the graph. The vertex moves from (2, 0) to (-3, 0).
4) Translate the given parabola 1 unit right by adding 1 to the x-coordinate of every point on the graph. The vertex moves from (-1, -3) to (0, -3).
5) Translate the given parabola 4 units down by subtracting 4 from the y-coordinate of every point on the graph. The vertex moves from (0, 2) to (0, -2).
6) Translate the given parabola 6 units up by adding 6 to the y-coordinate of every point on the graph. The vertex moves from (0, -4) to (0, 2).
