Vertical Translation

Shifts the graph up or down by 'k' units.

Horizontal Translation

Shifts the graph left (h > 0) or right (h < 0).

Vertical Dilation

Stretches/compresses vertically by a factor of |a|. Reflects over x-axis if a < 0.

Horizontal Dilation

Stretches/compresses horizontally by a factor of 1/|b|. Reflects over y-axis if b < 0.

Study Notes

Transformations of Functions

  • Vertical Translation: g(x) = f(x) + k, shifts the graph up or down by k units.
  • Horizontal Translation: g(x) = f(x + h), shifts the graph left if h > 0 and right if h < 0.
  • Vertical Dilation: g(x) = af(x), stretches or compresses vertically by a factor of a, reflecting over the x-axis if a < 0.
  • Horizontal Dilation: g(x) = f(bx), stretches or compresses horizontally by a factor of 1/b, reflecting over the y-axis if b < 0.

Function Model Selection and Assumption Articulation

  • Includes selecting appropriate models (linear, quadratic, etc.) for real-world scenarios.
  • Includes interpreting regression equations, correlation coefficients (r), and residuals.

Function Model Construction and Application

  • Construct models using transformations.
  • Apply models to solve contextual problems like temperature vs. fish distance and bacterial growth.

Examples of Parent Functions and Their Transformations

  • Constant, Identity, Quadratic, Cubic, Rational, Square Root, Cube Root, and Absolute Value functions.
