If the graph of the function g defined by g(x)=+2x^2+3 is translated vertically upward by 5 units, it becomes the graph of a function h . Find the expression for h(x) .

h (x) = _________

If we are going to move g(x) upwards by 5 units, we need to add a constant of 5 to g(x).

h(x)=2x^2+3+5

h(x)=2x^2+8
To derive the function h(x), we need only add 5 to g(x):  h(x)=2x^2+8.
