How the

a value affects the graph:

|a| > 1:
Stretches the graph, making it appear narrower.
0 < |a| < 1: Compresses the graph, making it appear wider.
A negative a value will reflect the graph vertically over the x-axis.
How the

h > 0:
h < 0:

h value affects the graph:

Shifts the graph to the right.


Shifts the graph to the left.

*Note: Because the equation form is x


How the

k > 0:
k < 0:

k value affects the graph:

Shifts the graph up.


Shifts the graph down.

- h it will appear as though h is the opposite value.
