Transformations of Linear Functions

Use the graphs of f and g to describe the transformation from the graph of f to the graph of g.

• The graph of g is a vertical translation 2 units up of the graph of f
• The graph of f is a horizontal translation two units left of g
• The graph of g is a vertical stretch by a factor of 2 of the graph of f
• The graph of g is a reflection of the graph of f

Use the graphs of f and g to describe the transformation from the graph of f to the graph of g.

• The graph of g is a vertical translation 4 units up from the graph f
• The graph of g is a horizontal translation of the graph of f, 4 units right
• The graph of g is a horizontal translation of the graph of f, 4 units left
• The graph of g is a vertical stretch of the graph of f, by a factor of 7

Which transformation will occur if f(x) = x is replaced with f(x) + 2?

• Translation left 2 units
• Translation right 2 units
• Vertical translation up by 2 units.
• Reflection across the x-axis.

Which transformation on

f(x) = x

is g(x) = -f(x)

• Reflection across the y-axis

• The slope will be less steep

• The graph will be wider

• Reflection across the x-axis.

How did the equation shift from the parent function?

y = f(x) + c

• Shifted up "c" units

• Shifted down "c" units

• Stretches vertically

• Shifted right "c" units

How did the equation shift from the parent function? y = -3f(x) + 5

• Reflection over x-axis, steeper, up 5

• Reflection over y-axis, less steep, right 5

• Steeper, left 5

• reflection over x-axis, less steep, up 5

How did the equation shift from the parent function? y = 4f(x - 3)

• Steeper and right 3
• Less steep and down 3
• Steeper and left 3
• Down

How did the equation shift from the parent function? y = f(x + 7)

• Up 7
• Down 7
• Left 7
• Right 7

How did the equation shift from the parent function?
y = 3f(x) - 2

• less steep and translate down 2
• Translate up 2
• Translate down 2
• steeper and translate down 2

If the graph of the parent function is shifted 7 units up and is steeper than the parent function, which of these could represent the function?

• f(x) = 7x + 3

• f(x) = x + 7

• f(x) = 3/2x + 7

• f(x) = 2/3x + 7
