Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem is asking to explain how to obtain the graphs of the given transformations of . Here's a detailed explanation of how to handle each transformation:
-
(a) :
- This is a horizontal shift to the right by 13 units.
- The graph of moves rightward along the x-axis by 13 units.
-
(b) :
- The is a vertical stretch by a factor of 2, which makes the graph taller (doubles the y-values).
- The shifts the graph downward by 13 units.
-
(c) :
- First, shift the graph of to the right by 13 units (horizontal shift).
- Then apply a vertical stretch by multiplying the y-values by 2.
-
(d) :
- Shift the graph of to the left by 13 units.
- Then multiply the y-values by -4. This does two things: flips the graph over the x-axis (because of the negative sign) and stretches it vertically by a factor of 4.
-
(e) :
- This is a vertical shift upward by 1 unit.
- The graph of moves upward along the y-axis.
-
(f) :
- The means a horizontal stretch by a factor of 10.
- The negative sign flips the graph of over the x-axis.
-
(g) :
- First, reflect the graph over the y-axis (due to the ).
- Then apply a vertical compression by dividing the y-values by 4.
-
(h) :
- Reflect the graph over the y-axis.
- Then apply a vertical stretch by a factor of 4 and flip it over the x-axis due to the negative sign.
Do you have any questions, or would you like more detailed explanations on any specific transformation? Here are some related questions for further practice:
- What happens if you replace with ?
- How would you describe the transformation for ?
- What effect does multiplying by a negative constant have on the graph?
- Can you explain the difference between horizontal and vertical shifts?
- How would you graph ?
Tip: For horizontal shifts, think in terms of the opposite sign (e.g., shifts to the right).
