Transformation
The function: f(x) = a (x - h) + k, is where:
- a determines whether the graph is a stretch or a shrink
- h determines whether the graph goes left or right
- k determines whether the graph goes up or down
Practice Problems
Determine the cubic function obtained from the parent function y = x3 after each sequence of transformation.
1.a.) a reflection across the x-axis
1.b.) a translation 1 unit up
1.c.) and a translation 2 units right
2.a.) a vertical stretch by a factor of 6
2.b.) and a translation 3 units left
