Quadratic Transformations Vertex

What does the quadratic function that has a vertex of (3,4) look like?

• y = a(x+3)² + 4

• y = a(x-3)² + 4

• y = -a(x+3) - 4

• y = a(x-3)² - 4

What steps transform the graph y = x² to y = (x - 4)²

• Shifted down 4 units

• Shifted left 4 units

• Shifted right 4 units

• Shifted up 4 units

Which transformation maps the graph of
f(x) = x² to the graph of g(x) = (x + 4)²?

• a reflection across the line x = -4

• a reflection across the line y = -4

• a translation shifting f(x) 4 units to the left

• a translation shifting f(x) 4 units to the right

What steps transform the graph y = x² to y = x² + 8

• shifted up 8 units

• shifted down 8 units

• shifted left 8 units

• shifted right 8 units

How did we transform from y=x^2?

y = -3x²

• vertical reflection and vertical shift down

• vertical reflection and vertical stretch

• horizontal stretch

• vertical reflection and vertical compression

In the vertex form f(x) = a(x - h)² + k , what does the 'h' value do?

• Shifts the function left or right

• Reflection over the x-axis

• Vertical stretch or compression

• Shifts the function up or down

In the vertex form f(x) = a(x - h)² + k , what does the 'k' value do?

• Shifts the function left or right

• Reflects over the x-axis

• Vertical stretch or compression

• Shifts the function up or down

In the vertex form f(x) = a(x - h)² + k , what does the 'a' value do?

• Shifts the function left or right

• Changing 'a' value has no affect on the parent function

• Vertical stretch or compression

• Shifts the function up or down

Given f(x) = ax² , if 0 < a < 1 , the graph will transform by

• becoming wider or vertically compressed

• becoming narrower or vertically stretched

Given f(x) = -x² , how did we transform from the parent function?

• Horizontal shift left

• Reflection over the x-axis

• Vertical shift down

• Vertical compression
