Math Response

What is the equation of the parent function shown in the graph?

Type answer here

Correct Answer: y=\frac{1}{x}

Deg^°

Rad

Graphing

Transform the quadratic parent function to show that there is a vertical translation up 4 units, a horizontal translation left 2 units, and vertical reflection.

(Make sure one of the points is on the vertex, and the other a zero.)

Graphing

Graph the exponential parent function.
