M2L6 TRANSFORMATIONS

Parent functions are the most basic form of a function. They are centered or oriented around the origin (0,0).
See some of our most common parent functionsbelow:1. Linear 2. Quadratic 3. Cubic 4. Radical 5. Absolute value 6. Exponential 7. Rational

Putting numbers into the parent function transforms it into something new. The letters a, h, & k are used to represent where we place numbers.

First, let’s look at what the a can do to a function.
If |a|>1, then it vertically stretches the function (looks taller & skinnier)
If 0<|a|<1, then it vertically shrinks the function(looks shorter and fatter)

-a reflects the function over the x axis.

Next, let’s look at what the h can do to a function.
If you have (x-h), the function is shifted right h units
If you have (x+h), the function is shifted left h units

Next, let’s look at what the k can do to a function.
If you have (x)-k, the function is shifted down k units
If you have (x)+k, the function is shifted up k units

A less common transformation is reflecting the function over the y axis (mirror image).To create a y axis reflection, you negate the x inside of it’s grouping symbols.
For example: OR OR

Two more less common transformations arehorizontal stretching and horizontal shrinking.
To create a horizontal change, you place a number in front of x inside of it’s grouping symbols.
For example: or or

Specifics on horizontal stretching and horizontal shrinking:
• If the coefficient is >1, then it horizontally shrinks the function
• If the coefficient is between 0 and 1, then it horizontally stretches the function.

All of those transformation rules work on any of our functions!
Let’s try an example. Given , shift it up 10 and left 7, reflect it across the x axis, and vertically stretch it by 5.
• now it’s shifted up 10• now we’ve added the shift left 7• now we’ve reflected it over the x axis• lastly, we vertically stretched it by 5

What if it already has transformations and we’re asked to change it?Let’s try that. Given , shift it up 4 and reflect it across the y axis.
• this shifts it up 4, but we should combine like terms• now we just need to negate the x• It’s done.
