Evaluate  for the variable x = 3 to the nearest hundredth.

Write an expression for the function which has a translation by 7 units down of 

There are 4 types of transformations vertical stretch, horizontal stretch, horizontal translation and vertical translation.

Find the x-intercept and y-intercept of  .

Here we used the concept of intercepts. The points on a graph where the graph crosses the two axes are known as the intercepts (x-axis and y-axis). The x-coordinate is the location where the graph crosses the x-axis, and the y-coordinate is the location where the graph crosses the y-axis. So the intercepts are x-intercept = – 1; y-intercept = 1

The graph of  is _________ of 

There are 4 types of transformations vertical stretch, horizontal stretch, horizontal translation and vertical translation.

Compare the graph of the function with the graph of f(x) = IxI. Describe the transformation. g(x) = -4Ix – 2I – 1

A function is generally denoted by f(x) where x is the input. The general representation of a function is y = f(x).

Compare the graph of the function with the graph of f(x) = IxI. Describe the transformation. g(x) = (1/3)Ix + 6I – 1

A function is generally denoted by f(x) where x is the input. The general representation of a function is y = f(x).

A function is generally denoted by f(x) where x is the input. The general representation of a function is y = f(x).

What function g describes the graph of f after the given transformation?
f(x) = IxI; vertically stretched by a factor of 3 and reflected across the x-axis.
