both names are on sheet!!

Transformation of Functions
Linear Function f(x) = x
The squaring function
2)( xxf
xxf )(The absolute value function
Absolute value- distance from zerofor order of operations works like ( )
3)( xxf
The cubing function
Vertical shifts up or down
Vertical Translation ( ) outsidey = x+ b shifted up b units;
y = x b shifted down b units.
2( )f x x2( ) 3f x x
2( ) 2f x x
Horizontal shifts left or right
Horizontal Translation(inside) BACKWARDS
y = (x d) shifted right d units;
y = (x + d) shifted left d units.

Use the basic graph to sketch the following:

Combining a vertical & horizontal shift
• Example of function that is shifted down 4 units and right 6 units from the original function.

Reflections• The graph of f(x) is the reflection of the
graph of f(x) across the x-axis. (fold at x axis-flips it up and down)
Use the basic graph to sketch the following:
2( )f x x|| xy
Vertical Stretching and ShrinkingThe graph of af(x) can be obtained from the graph of f(x) by
stretching vertically for |a| > 1, or skinnershrinking vertically for 0 < |a| < 1. fatter

Horizontal Stretching or ShrinkingThe graph of y = (cx)

Which Way Will You Shift?
1. f(x) + a 2. f(x - a) 3. f(x)*a 4. f(x + a) 5. f(x) - a
A) shift down a units B) shift right a units C) shift left a units D) shift up a units E) turn upside down F) none of these
Matching -- match the letter of the list on the right with the function on the left.
