Algebra 1 Exponential Functions Transformations

In an exponential function, what does the 'a' represent? 

• SLOPE

• RATE OF CHANGE

• Y-INTERCEPT

• COMMON RATIO

What is the y-intercept of the function?

• 2

• 3

• 1

• -2

What is the transformation?

• Vertical Translation up 1

• Vertical Translation down 1

• Horizontal Translation left 1

• Horizontal Translation right 1

The graph is shown, which statement best describes the transformation from the parent graph

• Vertically shift up 3

• Vertically shift down 3

• Horizontally shift right 3

• Horizontally shift left 3

• Vertically shift down 3, horizontally shift left 2, and vertically compressed 1/2 units

• Vertically shift up 3, horizontally shift left 2, and vertically compressed 1/2 units

• Vertically shift down 3, horizontally shift right 2, and vertically compressed 1/2 units

• Vertically shift up 3, horizontally shift right2, and vertically compressed 1/2 units

Using the parent function y=3^x what would the graph of y=3^x+1 look like?

• Horizontal shift left one unit

• Horizontal shift right one unit

• Vertical shift up one unit

• Vertical shift down one unit

What transformations have happened to y = 2^x if the new equation is y = 2^(x+3) -6

• It stayed the same

• up 3, left 6

• right 3, down 6

• left 3, down 6
