For this case, the parent function is given by:
We apply the following function transformation:
Vertical compressions:
To graph y = a * f (x)
If 0 <a <1, the graph of y = f (x) is compressed vertically by a factor a. (Shrinks)
We have then:
Horizontal translations:
Suppose that h> 0
To graph y = f (x + h), move the graph of h units to the left.
We have then:
Vertical translations:
Suppose that k> 0
To graph y = f (x) + k, move the graph of k units up.
We have then:
Answer:
Vertical compression by factor of 1/2. Horizontal displacement 3 units to the left. Vertical displacement 2 units up.
