Transformations of Graphs (functions) is the process by which a function is moved or resized to produce a variation of the original (parent) function.

Transformations

For a > 0

$f(x+a) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units left}$

$f(x-a) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units right}$

$f(x)+a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units up}$

$f(x)-a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units down}$

$y=a\:f(x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{stretched parallel to the y-axis (vertically) by a factor of}\:a$

$y=f(ax) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{stretched parallel to the x-axis (horizontally) by a factor of} \: \dfrac{1}{a}$

$y=-f(x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{reflected in the} \: x \textsf{-axis}$

$y=f(-x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{reflected in the} \: y \textsf{-axis}$

Identify the transformations that take the parent function to the given function.

Question 4

$\textsf{Parent function}: \quad f(x)=x^3$

$\textsf{Given function}: \quad f(x)=(5x)^3$

Comparing the parent function with the given function, we can see that the x-value of the parent function has been multiplied by 5.

Therefore, the transformation is:

$y=f(5x) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{stretched parallel to the x-axis (horizontally) by a factor of} \: \dfrac{1}{5}$

As a > 1, the transformation visually is a compression in the x-direction, so we can also say: Horizontal shrink by a factor of ¹/₅

Question 5

$\textsf{Parent function}: \quad f(x)=x^3$

$\textsf{Given function}: \quad f(x)=(x+5)^3+5$

Comparing the parent function with the given function, we can see that there are a series of transformations:

Step 1

5 has been added to the x-value of the parent function.

$f(x+5) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units left}$

Step 2

5 has then been added to function.

$f(x+5)+5 \implies f(x+5) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units up}$

Transformation: Left 5, Up 5

Question 6

$\textsf{Parent function}: \quad f(x)=x^3$

$\textsf{Given function}: \quad f(x)=(x-5)^3-5$

Comparing the parent function with the given function, we can see that there are a series of transformations:

Step 1

5 has been subtracted from the x-value of the parent function.

$f(x-5) \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units right}$

Step 2

5 has then been subtracted from function.

$f(x-5)-5 \implies f(x-5) \: \textsf{translated}\:5\:\textsf{units down}$

Transformation: Right 5, Down 5

When a certain tree was first planted, it was 4 feet tall, and the height of the tree increased by a constant amount each year f

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial height = 4 feet

Given that the height of the tree increased by a constant amount each year for the next 6 years. At the end of the 6th year, the tree was 1/5th taller than it was at the end of the 4th year.

Let the rate of growing each year be g.

After 6 years height of tree = 4 + 6g

After 4 years height of tree = 4 + 4g

At the end of the 6th year, the tree was 1/5th taller than it was at the end of the 4th year.

That is

$4+6g=4+4g+\frac{4+4g}{5}\\\\4+6g=\frac{20+20g+4+4g}{5}\\\\20+30g=24+24g\\\\6g=4\\\\g=\frac{2}{3}ft/year$

Option D is the correct answer.
