Math Problem Statement
Dance Moves
Move 1: Jump Up
Transformation: Vertical shift up by 3 units.
Equation: ( f(x) = x^2 + 3 )
Move 2: Slide Left
Transformation: Horizontal shift left by 2 units.
Equation: ( f(x) = (x + 2)^2 )
Move 3: Flip
Transformation: Reflection over the x-axis.
Equation: ( f(x) = -x^2 )
Graph
You can plot these equations on the provided graph to visualize the dance moves. Each transformation will show how the original function ( f(x) = x^2 ) changes with each move.
Solution
Let's break down each transformation and plot them on the provided graph.
Original Function:
This is the standard parabola opening upwards with its vertex at the origin .
Move 1: Jump Up
- Transformation: Vertical shift up by 3 units.
- Equation:
- The entire parabola moves 3 units up, so the new vertex is at .
Move 2: Slide Left
- Transformation: Horizontal shift left by 2 units.
- Equation:
- The parabola shifts 2 units to the left, so the new vertex is at .
Move 3: Flip
- Transformation: Reflection over the x-axis.
- Equation:
- The parabola is reflected over the x-axis, so it opens downwards with the vertex at the origin .
I'll now outline the steps you would take to manually plot these on the graph.
-
Plot the original function :
- Start at the origin and plot the parabola opening upwards.
-
Plot :
- Shift every point on the original parabola 3 units up.
-
Plot :
- Shift every point on the original parabola 2 units to the left.
-
Plot :
- Reflect the original parabola over the x-axis.
Since I can't directly plot these on the graph for you, I can guide you through the process. However, if you want to visualize these steps on your graph, you can manually sketch each transformed function.
