Study Notes
Project 1: Exploring Translations of Polynomials
- Horizontal translation in quadratic functions occurs by changing the value of h in the equation f(x) = (x − h)² + k.
- Vertical translation occurs by altering the value of k in the same equation.
- The function f(x) = x² transitions 3 units downwards when adjusted to f(x) = x² - 3.
- Translating f(x) = x³ to the right is achieved through the rule f'(x) = (x - 8)³.
- To translate f(x) = x⁴ to the left, use the rule f'(x) = (x + 9)⁴.
- Modifying f(x) = x⁴ to f'(x) = x⁴ + 5 results in a movement of 5 units upward.
Project 2: Exploring Dilations of Polynomials
- Horizontal dilation in quadratic functions is controlled by adjusting the value of b in the rule f'(x) = af(1/bx)².
- Vertical dilation is influenced by changing the value of a in the same dilation rule.
- The function f(x) = (x - 1)² + 1 transforms to f'(x) = 2((x - 1)² + 1), resulting in stretching away from the x-axis.
- Changing f(x) to f'(x) = (1/3x - 1)² + 1 causes stretching away from the y-axis.
- The function f(x) = (x - 1)² + 1 becomes compressed towards the x-axis when changed to f'(x) = (1/2)((x - 1)² + 1).
- Changing f(x) to f'(x) = (2x - 1)² + 1 results in stretching away from the y-axis.
- Reflecting the graph of f(x) over the x-axis can be achieved with f'(x) = -1.4((x - 1)² + 1).
- Reflection over the y-axis is accomplished by using the transformation f'(x) = (0.1x - 1)² + 1.
Project 3: Dividing Polynomials with Technology
- To find the quotient of x³ - 7x + 14 divided by x + 4, the result is x² - 4x + 9 - 22/(x + 4).
- For the division of 5x⁷ − 18x⁵ by x² − 2, the quotient is 5x⁵ - 8x³ - 16x - 32x/(x² - 2).
- When dividing the expression 9x⁴ + 2x³ by x + 10, it should be entered in a CAS tool as Division(9x⁴ + 2x³, x + 10).
- The quotient from Johnathan's division problem entered into the CAS yields x² - 11x + 60 - 358/(x + 6).
- Sarah incorrectly entered the division by using "divide" instead of "division" in the CAS.
