Transformations
Types of transformations performed on graphs:โข Vertical shift (translation)โข Horizontal shift (translation)โข Vertical stretch/shrink (dilation)โข Horizontal stretch/shrink (dilation)โข Reflection
Each one can be determined by examining the equation of the graph.

Vertical Shift
The graph of y = f(x) + h โข Shifts the graph of y = f(x) up h units
The graph of y = f(x) - h โข Shifts the graph of y = f(x) down h units

Horizontal Shift

The graph of y = f(x - h) โข Shifts the graph of y = f(x) right h units
Graph y = |x|, y = |x + 4|, and y = |x โ 5|.

Vertical Stretching/Shrinking
The graph of y = Af(x) can be obtained from the graph ofy = f(x) by multiplying each y-coordinate of f(x) by A.
If A > 1, the result is a vertical stretch by a factor of A.
If 0 < A < 1, the result is a vertical shrink by a factor of A.
Graph y = |x|, y = 2|x|, and y = 0.5|x|

Multiple Transformations
It is common for a graph to have multiple transformations. Itโs important to know what the parent looks like so you
can perform each transformation on it.

Piecewise-Defined Functions
Functions whose definitions involve more than one rule for different parts of its domain are called piecewise-defined functions.
Graphing one of these functions involves graphing each rule over the appropriate portion of the domain.
