Last Class… • Vertical Line Test • Quick Sketches of 6 Important Functions
Learning Targets By the end of class, students will be able to: • Quick sketch 6 common functions • Use shifting to move graphs
Shifting • Two Types of Shifts • Vertical shifts: Up and down • Horizontal Shifts: Left and Right
Vertical Shifts • A VERTICAL SHIFT is given by a +/- constant next to the variable term • Examples: • f(x) = x + 3 Compared to our quick sketch of f(x) = x, the graph is shifted 3 units UP
Vertical Shifts • Whether the shift is UP or DOWN depends on the sign in front of the number • Positive: Graph shifts UP • Negative: Graph shifts DOWN
Horizontal Shifts • A HORIZONTAL SHIFT is given by a +/- constant inside the parenthesis or radical sign • Example: f(x) = (x – 3)2 Compared to the quick sketch of the function f(x) = x2, the sketch of our function is moved 3 units to the right.
Horizontal Shifts • Whether the shift is LEFT or RIGHT depends on the sign in front of the number • Positive: Graph shifts LEFT • Negative: Graph shifts RIGHT
“Flipping” • When there is a NEGATIVE sign in front of your function, that means that you turn the function upside down, or 90° • Example: f(x) = -|x| Compared to the quick sketch of the function f(x) = |x|, the sketch of our function is turned upside down.
One person from each group needs to grab… A white board A marker An eraser
“Lightning” Round • You will have 1 minute to sketch the given graph • Point goes to the every group who gets it right • Group with the most points at the end of the period gets a prize (candy)
