Math Problem Statement
A function is transformed by the equation . Describe the transformations.
Group of answer choices
Translate right 4 units
Reflection over the x-axis
Translate up 4 units
Reflection over the y-axis
Solution
It seems your question is about transformations of a function, but the equation you're referencing is incomplete or missing. However, I can explain how different transformations affect a function if you provide a standard function and then modify it.
Let’s assume the following types of transformations:
-
Translation right/left:
translates the function to the right by units if , and to the left if . -
Translation up/down:
translates the function upward by units if , and downward if . -
Reflection over the x-axis:
reflects the function across the x-axis. -
Reflection over the y-axis:
reflects the function across the y-axis.
Could you confirm or provide the complete equation you were referring to? I'll ensure my response aligns exactly with that.
Relative Questions:
- What is the transformation if the function is written as ?
- How does multiplying by a negative number affect a function?
- What happens when the equation is ?
- What is the effect of both a horizontal and vertical translation on a graph?
- How do stretches and compressions work along with reflections?
Tip: When in doubt, try to sketch the graph step-by-step after each transformation to visualize its effect!
