Answer:
[tex]g(x) = 2(x+2)^2 -1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In general if a function f translated a units left i,e
y =f(x) translated by a units left we have;
y =f(x+a)
Given the function:
[tex]f(x) = 2x^2-1[/tex]
We have to find the function g(x):
g(x) is f(x) translated left 2 units
By definition we have;
⇒[tex]g(x) = f(x+2)[/tex]
⇒[tex]g(x) = 2(x+2)^2 -1[/tex]
Therefore, the equation of g(x) is,
[tex]g(x) = 2(x+2)^2 -1[/tex]
