MCR3U General Transformations of Functions Thursday June 3rd, 2010

The document discusses general transformations of functions including composing functions with constants, translating the argument of functions, and stretching and shrinking graphs vertically and horizontally. It provides examples of applying multiple transformations, such as doubling and shifting, to the function f(x)=x^3+5x^2-8. It also gives points that the original function f(x) passes through.

For the function f
(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 ­ 8 
...

you are to find the 
corresponding 
equation along with 
a sketch of its 
graph:

2f(x)
2f(x ­ 3)
2f(3(x ­ 3))
2f(3(x ­ 3)) + 1

By the way, f(x) 
passes through the 
points (0,­8), (1,­2), 
(2,20) and (3,64)
