ANSWER
shifts up 7 units.
EXPLANATION
The given function is
[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} [/tex]
This is the base of the quadratic function without any transformation.
It is also refer to as the parent function.
The transformed function has equation:
[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} + 7[/tex]
This transformation is of the form
[tex]y = f(x) + k[/tex]
This transformation shifts the graph of the base function up by k units.
Since k=7, the base function is shifted up by 7 units.
