Warm up Find: g(1) and g(5) + 7 Don’t freak out! Just plug the number in for x and solve.
What does this mean? • Simply picking up a graph, and moving it. Either up and down, or side to side.
What these can look like… • Same graph, just in a new location
We need a way to explain the location of a graph using equations.
First we need to know the general equation for each function. They are called the Parent Functions
What is a vertex? • The peak in the curve, or the tip of the graph. • We will use the vertex to figure out where the graph moved.
What is the coordinates for the vertex of the blue graph? • (0,0) • Of the red? • (-3, .5)
What is the coordinates for the vertex of the blue graph? • (0,0) • Of the red? • (3, 0)
Looking at the vertex is the easiest way to tell where the function shifted.
General Transformation Equation • k=vertical shift (up and down) • +k is up • -k is down. • h=horizontal shift (side to side) • (x-h) is shifted to the RIGHT • (x+h) is shifted to the LEFT
Example 1: (blue is original, red is shifted) • Questions to ask yourself • What is the parent function? y=x 2. Has it shifted left or right? No 3. Has it shifted up/down? Yes, it went up 3. 4. What is the equation?
You try! Blue is original. • Answer:
Homework • Problems 1 and 2 • For 2, identify the vertices AND write an equation for each graph.
