Multiplying a function by -1 will make it a reflection of the original function across the x axis.

The function will remain unchanged. Therefore, the graph will also remain unchanged.

What is the effect on a graph when you multiply a function by -1?

When a function is multiplied by -1 its graph is reflected in the x-axis.

If the parents function is y4x which is the function of the graph?

The function y = x is the graph that passes from the points (-1, -1), (0, 0), and (1, 1) The function y = 4x is the graph that passes form the points (-1, -4), (0, 0), and (1, 4) Sketch these graphs in a same x and y coordinate system, and you can see both of them

What is y equals 3x?

I don't understand your question but y=3x is the function of a graph, to graph the function you would plug points into the function such as x=0, x=1, x=-1 and you would find the y values at each point so that you can graph it. In this case the graph is a parabola which has a u shape.


What happen to the graph of a function when you multiply the function rule by a?

If a > 0, it is stretched, in the vertical direction, by the factor a If a = 1 it is unchanged If 0 < a < 1, it is shrunk bt the factor a If a = 0, it is coincident with the x-axis If a < 0 then as above, but it is also reflected about the x-axis (turned upside down).

How does the graph of the cosine function differ from a graph of a sine function?

the graph of cos(x)=1 when x=0the graph of sin(x)=0 when x=0.But that only tells part of the story. The two graphs are out of sync by pi/2 radians (or 90°; also referred to as 1/4 wavelength or 1/4 cycle). One cycle is 2*pi radians (the distance for the graph to get back where it started and repeat itself.The cosine graph is 'ahead' (leads) of the sine graph by 1/4 cycle. Or you can say that the sine graph lags the cosine graph by 1/4 cycle.


What is function if X is -1 and y is 4?

It is impossible to determine the function here. (-1,4) is just a point on a graph.
