Consider the graphs of $(1)$ $y=x^2-\dfrac12x+2$ and $(2)$ $y=x^2+\dfrac12x+2$ on the same set of axes. These parabolas have exactly the same shape. Then:
the graphs coincide.
the graph of $(1)$ is lower than the graph of $(2).$
the graph of $(1)$ is to the left of the graph of
$(2).$
the graph of $(1)$ is to the right of the
graph of $(2).$
the graph of $(1)$ is higher than the graph of $(2).$
