(Lecture) Transformations of Functions 2a
Vertical Translation
Given the graph of f(x), sketch the graph of f(x) + 2.
If A(3, -5) is a point on the graph of f(x), what is the new position of A in the
graph of f(x) + 5.
Horizontal Translation
Given the graph of f(x), sketch the graph of f(x – 2).
If A(3, -5) is a point on the graph of f(x), what is the new position of A in the
graph of f(x – 4).
If A(3, -5) is a point on the graph of f(x), what is the new position of A in the
graph of f(x – 4) + 3.
