Reflection across the x-axis

Reflection across the y-axis

Vertical transition down 1

Horizontal transition left 1

Answer explanation

The negative is on the outside, therefore it is a VERTICAL flip, which is a reflection across the x-axis.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

20 sec • 1 pt

Horizontal translation 3 units left

Horizontal translation 3 units right

Vertical translation 3 units down

Vertical translation 3 units up

Answer explanation

The + 3 is outside the absolute value bars, so that indicated a VERTICAL change. Because it is after the absolute value, it translates up 3 units.

Horizontal translation 45 units left

Horizontal translation 45 units right

Vertical translation 45 units down

Vertical translation 45 units up

Answer explanation

The - 45 is inside the absolute value bars. Since it is after the x, it moves right 45 units.
REMEMBER: Anything horizontal is the opposite of what you might think.

Choose the description of the transformation on f(x) that result in g(x):
g(x) = f(-x)

Reflection across the x-axis

Reflection across the y-axis

Vertical translation down 1 unit

Vertical translation left 1 unit

Answer explanation

The negative is INSIDE the parenthesis, so this indicates a HORIZONTAL change. Since it is in front of the x it is a reflection across the y-axis.

The negative is on the outside, therefore it is a VERTICAL flip, which is a reflection across the x-axis.

Don't make it more difficult than it has to be:
It follows the same pattern as the function notation.

The + 3 is outside the absolute value bars, so that indicated a VERTICAL change. Because it is after the absolute value, it translates up 3 units.

The - 45 is inside the absolute value bars. Since it is after the x, it moves right 45 units.

Choose the description of the transformation on f(x) that result in g(x):
g(x) = f(-x)

The negative is INSIDE the parenthesis, so this indicates a HORIZONTAL change. Since it is in front of the x it is a reflection across the y-axis.

Choose the description of the transformation on f(x) that result in g(x):
g(x) = f(x) + 18

The + 18 is OUTSIDE of the parenthesis; this indicates that it is a VERTICAL change. Because it is after the parenthesis, it will move up 18 units.

Choose the description of the transformation on f(x) that result in g(x):
g(x) = 7f(x)

The 7 is OUTSIDE of the parenthesis, indicating that it is a VERTICAL change. Since it is a factor of f(x) and it is greater than 1, it is a vertical stretch by a factor of 7.

Choose the description of the transformation on f(x) that result in g(x):
g(x) = f(x + 18)

The + 18 is INSIDE of the parenthesis indicating a HORIZONTAL change. It will move left 18 units.
REMEMBER: Anything horizontal is the opposite of what you might think.
