Algebra Transformation

Which quadratic function is represented by the graph?

• y = 2(x - 4)² + 5
• y = 2(x + 4)² + 5
• y = -2(x - 4)² + 5
• y = -2(x + 4)² + 5

Which transformation transforms the graph of
f(x) = x² to the graph of g(x) = (x + 4)²?

• a vertical translation 4 units up
• a vertical translation 4 units down
• a horizontal translation 4 units to the left
• a horizontal translation 4 units to the right

How did we transform from y=x² to
y = -3x²

• reflection in x-axis and vertical shift down
• reflection x-axis and vertical stretch
• horizontal stretch
• reflection x-axis and vertical compression

Match the description to its equation.

How did we transform from the parent function?
y = -1/5(x - 1)² + 7

• reflection, vertical compression, horizontal right, vertical up
• vertical compression, horizontal shift left, vertical shift up
• reflection, horizontal shift right, vertical shift down
• no changes were made to y = x²

Match the equation to its description.

• Vertical Stretched by 2 and translation up 4
•  Vertical Compressed by 2 and translation up 4
• Horizontal Stretched by 2 and translation left 4
• Horizontal Compressed by 2 and translation right 4

In the equation f(x)=5(x+3)²-10 what does the 5 do?

• Vertical stretch by 5
• Horizontal compress by 5
• Reflect
• Move up 5

In the equation f(x)=1/2(x+9)²-1, what happens to the parabola?

• Reflect, horizontal compress by 1/2, left 9, down 1
• Vertical compress by 1/2, left 9, down 1
• Horizontal Compress by 1/2, right 9, down 1
• Vertical Stretch by 1/2, left 9, down 1

If the blue graph is
f(x) = x² 
then the red must be...

• g(x) = x² - 5
• g(x) = x² + 5
• g(x) = (x - 5)²
• g(x) = (x + 5)²

If the blue graph is
f(x) = x² 
the red must be...

• g(x) = (x + 3)²
• g(x) = (x - 3)²
• g(x) = x² + 3
• g(x) = x² - 2
