What does it mean to transform a function?

Back

Transforming a function involves changing its position, size, or orientation on a graph, which can include shifting, stretching, compressing, or reflecting the function.

What is a vertical stretch in the context of function transformations?

Back

A vertical stretch occurs when the output values of a function are multiplied by a factor greater than 1, making the graph taller.

Front

What is a vertical compression in the context of function transformations?

Back

A vertical compression occurs when the output values of a function are multiplied by a factor between 0 and 1, making the graph shorter.

What does a negative coefficient in front of a function indicate?

Back

A negative coefficient reflects the graph of the function across the x-axis.
