Question

What type or types of transformations can affect the slope of a linear function? What type or types cannot?

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is choice A.

Only the rotation and reflection would change the slope of a linear equation. In both of these cases, the direction of the line would change. Therefore, the slope of the line would also have to change.

In the case of a translation, the slope would not change. A translation is simply a movement up/down or left/right. The general direction (slope) of the line does not change.
