Shifting of Parabola
As stated previously, the graph of y=x2 is our standard graph.
If equation is given in the format of y = x2 + h than the graph shifts only up or down, depending upon whether the value of h is positive or negative, respectively.
Some examples are given below.

Some examples are given below.
Now, let's look at the graphs of :
y = x2 (red)
Some equations expressed in form of :
y1
= (x + 4) 2 - 2 (green)
y2 = (x + 4) 2
+ 2 (blue)
y3 = (x - 4) 2 - 2 (brown)
y4
= (x - 4) 2 + 2 (purple).
Notice that the graphs have vertices
(0, 0), (-4, -2), (-4, 2), (4, -2), and (4, 2), respectively.
Note: In all the above equations constant a which is one in above equations is 1 (a=1). That's why all parabola are facing upwards.
**ART :-
Whenever there is a constant added to the value of y that shifting will occur along y axis or vertically.
Simultaneously when a constant is added to x than shifting will occur along x axis or horizontally.
