1. Section 1.6Transformation of Functions

2. Graphs of Common Functions

6. Reciprocal Function

7. Vertical Shifts

9. Vertical Shifts

11. Example Use the graph of f(x)=|x| to obtain g(x)=|x|-2

12. Horizontal Shifts

14. Horizontal Shifts

15. Example Use the graph of f(x)=x2 to obtain g(x)=(x+1)2

16. Combining Horizontal and Vertical Shifts

17. Example Use the graph of f(x)=x2 to obtain g(x)=(x+1)2+2

18. Reflections of Graphs

20. Reflections about the x-axis

22. Example Use the graph of f(x)=x3 to obtain the graph of g(x)= (-x)3.

23. Example

24. Vertical Stretching and Shrinking

26. Vertically Shrinking

27. Vertically Stretching Graph of f(x)=x3 Graph of g(x)=3x3 This is vertical stretching – each y coordinate is multiplied by 3 to stretch the graph.

28. Example Use the graph of f(x)=|x| to graph g(x)= 2|x|

29. Horizontal Stretching and Shrinking

31. Horizontal Shrinking

32. Horizontal Stretching

33. Example

34. Sequences of Transformations

35. A function involving more than one transformation can be graphed by performing transformations in the following order: • Horizontal shifting • Stretching or shrinking • Reflecting • Vertical shifting
