How do you translate the graph y = x^2, five unit squares negatively horizontally and 3 unit squares positively vertically?

Start again by drawing the graph and then the translated graphExplain what is meant by a translation ( a movement of the graph )Use a table of values to show how we can change the function to allow for different y values for different x values via transformationTake them through the process of translating the example functionAsk them to talk me through the process themselves using a similar example.
