How to Translate Linear Functions

This video tutorial covers the translation of linear functions, focusing on horizontal and vertical translations. It begins with an introduction to the concept of a parent function and how all linear functions are transformations of this basic function. The tutorial explains how horizontal translations affect the inputs (domain) and vertical translations affect the outputs (range) of a function. Through examples and practice problems, viewers learn to express these translations using function notation and understand the graphical implications of these transformations.

What is the transformation that occurs when the function G is defined as F of X - 2?

In the context of the lesson, what does it mean for a graph to be a vertical translation?

How do you determine if a translation is horizontal or vertical based on function notation?

What is the significance of understanding function notation in relation to transformations?
