"see explanation"

Explanation:

"the graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted vertically by"
"+ 6 units"

"or equivalent to a translation "((0),(6))

"in general "

g(x)=x^2+-a

"for "a>0 " shift is "((0),(a))uarr

"for " a<0" shift is "((0),(-a))darr

graph{(y-x^2)(y-x^2-6)=0 [-20, 20, -10, 10]}
