Transformations Of Graphs: Translations

The video tutorial covers transformations useful for graphic designers, focusing on vertical and horizontal transformations. It explains how vertical transformations apply to the entire function, while horizontal transformations affect the X values. The tutorial highlights the counterintuitive nature of horizontal translations, where adding shifts the curve left and subtracting shifts it right. The video includes practical exercises and concludes with a summary and introduction to reflections.

What is the primary difference between vertical and horizontal transformations?

• Vertical transformations apply to the X values only.

• Horizontal transformations apply to the entire function.

• Vertical transformations affect the entire function, while horizontal transformations affect the X values.

• Both transformations apply to the entire function.

How does adding a value in a vertical translation affect the graph?

• It shifts the graph to the left.

• It shifts the graph to the right.

• It shifts the graph upwards.

• It shifts the graph downwards.

In horizontal translations, what happens when you add a value to the X?

• The curve remains unchanged.

• The curve shifts to the left.

• The curve shifts upwards.

• The curve shifts to the right.

What is a key point to remember about horizontal translations?

• Both adding and subtracting shift the curve downwards.

• Both adding and subtracting shift the curve upwards.

• Adding shifts the curve left, and subtracting shifts it right.

• Adding shifts the curve right, and subtracting shifts it left.
