How did the equation shift from the parent function? y=x+2

• Shift up 2
• Shift down 2
• steeper
• flipped

How did the equation shift from the parent function? y=1/2x

• Steeper
• shift up
• Less steep

If the graph of the parent function f(x) = x is shifted 7 units
down, which of the following equations would the new graphed
line represent?

• f(x) = 7x
• f(x) = x - 7
• f(x) = x + 7
• f(x) = 7x - 7

Troy graphed the line of the equation f(x) = 5x + 2. Sarah
graphed the line of the equation g(x) = 5x – 2 on the same
coordinate plane. Which of the following statements best
describes the line that Sarah graphed?

• Less steep by 2
• Vertical shift up 4
• Vertical shift down 4
• Steeper by 2

Given f(x) = 2x +3.  Translate the function down 2 and write the new rule.

• g(x) = 2x +1
• g(x) = 2x + 5
• g(x)= x + 3
• g(x) = 2x +3

Chris has $100 in his savings account and he adds $20 a month to the account.
The total amount can be represented by the linear function T = 20x + 100. His goal is to have a total of $300 in four more months.
What should he change in the function to reach this goal?

• A) Change the amount he adds each month to $50.
• B)Change the amount he adds each month to $40.
• C)Change the y-intercept of the linear function to $20.
• D)Change the y-intercept of the linear function to $50.
