Linear Transformation Functions

Use the graphs of f and g to describe the transformation from the graph of f to the graph of g.

• The graph of g is a vertical translation 2 units up of the graph of f

• The graph of f is a horizontal translation two units left of g

• The graph of g is a vertical stretch by a factor of 2 of the graph of f

• The graph of g is a reflection of the graph of f
