Unit 5 Classwork 1 - Transformations of Graphs

Name:________________________
Extra Practice

Use the two given functions to circle the correct transformation and complete the sentences.
1. Function 1: y = -(x - 4)2 5 Function 2: y = (x + 2)2 + 3
Function 2 is shifted left / right __________ units.
Function 2 is shifted up / down __________ units.
Function 2 is more steep / less steep / the same steepness.
Function 2 is reflected / not reflected.

2. Use the two given functions to describe transformations from the graph of Function 1 to the graph of
Function 2.

Function 1: y = 2(x +3)2 + 1 Function 2: y = -(x - 2)2 4

Describe:

3. Given y = 4(x) + 1, write an equation whose graph is shifted left 2 units, up 7 units and is reflected over the x
axis.

Describe the transformations necessary to transform the parent graph of y=x 2 to the graphs pictured below.

4. 5.

 Describe the transformations necessary to transform the graph of f ( x) into that of g( x).

6. 3) f ( x) x 7. f ( x)x
g( x) x g( x)( x)

Transform the given function f ( x) as described and write the resulting function as an equation.

8. f ( x)x 9. f ( x) x
expand vertically by a compress horizontally by a factor of translate left
factor of then translate units
down units
