Unit 3 Functions (Linear and Exponentials) • Parent Functions and Transformations
Transformation of Functions • Recognize graphs of common functions • Use shifts to graph functions • Use reflections to graph functions • Graph functions w/ sequence of transformations
The following basic graphs will be used extensively in this section. It is important to be able to sketch these from memory.
Transformations happen in 3 forms: (1) translations(2) reflections(3) stretching.
The values that translate the graph of a function will occur as a number added or subtracted either inside or outside a function.Numbers added or subtractedinside translate left or right, while numbers added or subtractedoutside translate up or down.
Vertical Translation OUTSIDE IS TRUE! Vertical Translation the graph of y = f(x) + k is the graph of y = f(x) shifted up k units; the graph of y = f(x) k is the graph of y = f(x) shifted down k units.
Horizontal Translation INSIDE LIES! Horizontal Translation the graph of y = f(x h) is the graph of y = f(x) shifted right h units; the graph of y = f(x + h) is the graph of y = f(x) shifted left h units.
Recognizing the shift from the equation, examples of shifting the function f(x) = • Vertical shift of 3 units up • Horizontal shift of 3 units left (HINT: x’s go the opposite direction that you might believe.)
Example • Explain the difference in the graphs Horizontal Shift Left 3 Units Vertical Shift Up 3 Units
Combining a vertical & horizontal shift • Example of function that is shifted down 4 units and right 6 units from the original function.
Reflection about the x-Axis • The graph of y = - f (x) is the graph of y = f (x) reflected about the x-axis. Reflection about the y-Axis • The graph of y = f (-x) is the graph of y = f (x) reflected about the y-axis.
g(x) = 2x2 f (x) = x2 • Let f be a function and c a positive real number. • If a > 1, the graph of y = a f (x) is y = f (x) vertically stretched by multiplying each of its y-coordinates by a. • If 0 < a < 1, the graph of y = a f (x) is y = f (x) vertically shrunk by multiplying each of its y-coordinates by a.

A function involving more than one transformation can be graphed by performing transformations in the following order. 1. Horizontal shifting (Parentheses) 2. Vertical stretching or shrinking (Multiply) 3. Reflecting (Multiply) 4. Vertical shifting (Add/Subtract) Sequence of Transformations
Example • Use the graph of f(x) = x3 to graph g(x) = -2(x+3)3 - 4
A combination • If the parent function is • Describe the graph of The parent would be horizontally shifted right 3 units and vertically shifted up 6 units
If the parent function is • What do we know about The graph would be vertically shifted down 5 units and vertically stretched two times as much.
What can we tell about this graph? It would be a cubic function reflected across the x-axis and horizontally compressed by a factor of ½.
