F(x) = (x-h)2
If h is positive, shift to the left ; if h is negative, shift to the right
This happens because when factored to find the roots, the roots come out as positive for F(x) = x2-5x+6 but come out negative for F(x) = x2+5x+6.
II. Vertical Translation F(x)= (x-h)2+k K value determines movement up or down y axis F(x)= x2 F(x)= x2+1 F(x)= x2-1

Reflection over the X and Y axes X axis : -F(x) Y axis : F(-x) F(x)=x2 F(x)=-(x2) F(x)= (x-1)2+3 F(x)=(-x-1)2+3 Reflection over the X F(x)=-(x2) Xint : (0,0) Yint : (0,0) Domain : ARN ; Range : y0 Reflection over the Y F(x)= (x-1)2+3 Yint : (0,4) Domain : ARN ; Range : y3 F(x)=(-x-1)2+3 Yint : (0,4) Domain : ARN ; Range : y3
IV. Vertical and Horizontal Stretch F(x)=ax2 Vertical Stretch : a>1 Horizontal Stretch 1>a>0 F(x)=x2 F(x)= 3x2 F(x)= ( 1/3)x2 InterceptsX : 0 ; y : 0 Domain : ARN ; Range : y0 InterceptsX :0 ; y :0 Domain : ARN ; Range y0
The vertical stretch happens because as every x value is plugged in, each y value is proportionally 3 times the size of the original parent function. Inversely, the horizontal stretch happens because as every x value is plugged in, each y value is proportionally 1/3 times the size of the original parent function.

Show how to perform each transformation if given a graph of a misc. function (see page 142 6a and 6b. For the function y = f(x 2) 3, all x values must be shifted to the right 2 units due to the (x-2), and all y coordinates must shift down 3 units because of the -3 such that the translations look like so:
Show general rules for the previous transformations: In other cases, where a function may be y = f(x), the graph may be reflected over the x-axis when the function is y = f(-x) causing all y values to change signs, and the graph can be reflected over the y-axis, resulting in all x values to change signs. Additional translations include vertical and horizontal stretches (vertical when a>1; horizontal when a<1), which causes the y values to be proportionally greater or less than the original parent function.
