Answer :
Using translation concepts, the vertex of k(x) is 6 units below the vertex of f(x) = x² for:
D. f(x) = x² and k(x) = x² - 6.
What is a translation?
A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction in it's definition.
We want to shift the vertex 6 units down, hence the transformation is y -> y - 6, so the correct pair is:
D. f(x) = x² and k(x) = x² - 6.
