OK, so let's call the parent function you're given f(x). There's a series of transformations a parent function can go through:
-f(x) = makes the parent function reflect over the x-axis
On the other hand, f(-x) = makes it reflect over the y-axis
f(x+a) = makes the parent function shift a units to the left
f(x-a) = makes the parent function shift a units to the right
f(x)+a = makes the parent function shift a units up
f(x)-a = makes the parent function shift a units down
f(ax) if x is a fraction like 1/2 , makes the parent function stretch by a factor of 2 (or multiply each x by 2)
f(ax) if x is a whole number (or fractions greater or equal to 1) like 2, makes the parent function compress by a factor of 2 (or divide each x by 2)
a*f(x) if x is a fraction like 1/2, makes the parent function get shorter by a factor of 2 (or divide each y by 2)
a*f(x) if x is a whole number (or fractions greater or equal to 1) like 2, makes the parent function get taller by a factor of 2 (or multiply each y by 2)
One way you can always tell what to do is that everything that is INSIDE the parentheses will be the OPPOSITE of what you think it should do. OUTSIDE the parentheses will do EXACTLY what you think it should do.
And when performing the transformations, start inside the parentheses first and then move outside. For example, f(x-2)+2; move the parent function first to the right 2 units and THEN move it up 2 units.
Reciprocal parent function
It is a reflection of the original graph in the line y = x.
f(x)=x^2 apex
It is in quadrants 1 and 2 It is v shaped it goes through the origin hope this helps!
Test it by the vertical line test. That is, if a vertical line passes through the two points of the graph, this graph is not the graph of a function.
Reciprocal parent function
Vertical transformations involve shifting the graph up or down, affecting the y-values, while horizontal transformations involve shifting the graph left or right, affecting the x-values. Vertical transformations are usually represented by adding or subtracting a value outside of the function, while horizontal transformations are represented by adding or subtracting a value inside the function.
If you want to ask questions about the "following", then I suggest that you make sure that there is something that is following.
The linear parent function is y=x. The line on a graph passes through the origin(0,0) with a slope of 1. The line will face left to right on the graph like this /.
It is a hyperbola, it is in quadrants I and II
It is a reflection of the original graph in the line y = x.
All of the algebraic transformations occur after the function does its job, all of the rules from the two charts above to transform the graph of a function.
f(x)=x^2 apex
One of the transformations performed on a function is translating it vertically by adding or subtracting a constant value to all y-values. This shifts the graph up or down relative to the original function without changing its shape.
the parent graph of a graph
if you need to reflect a 2-d object on a graph over its parent linear function then do as follows: (x,y) --> (-y,-x) hope that helps
the graph that is the parent
