Lesson 22 Matching a Transformation to a Graph
1
In the previous lesson we looked at graphical transformations, which
means taking the graph of a function and shifting it, stretching it,
compressing it, and/or reflecting it to get a new graph.
Vertical shifts: a number is added to or subtracted from the outputs of a
function, leaving the inputs of the function unaffected.
Examples: 𝑓(𝑥) + 2 is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) shifted up 2 units
𝑓(𝑥) − 3 is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) shifted down 3 units
Horizontal shifts: a number is added to or subtracted from the inputs of a
function, leaving the outputs of the function unaffected.
Examples: 𝑓(𝑥 + 2) is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) shifted to the left 2 units
𝑓(𝑥 − 3) is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) shifted to the right 3 units
Vertical stretching/compressing: the outputs of a function are multiplied
or divide by a number, leaving the inputs of the function unaffected.
Examples: 2 ∙ 𝑓(𝑥) is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) stretched by a factor of 2
𝑓(𝑥)
3 is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) compressed by a factor of 3
Horizontal stretching/compressing: the inputs of a function are
multiplied or divide by a number, leaving the outputs of the function
unaffected.
Examples: 𝑓(2 ∙ 𝑥) is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) compressed by a factor of 2
𝑓 (𝑥
3) is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) stretched by a factor of 3
Reflections: the inputs or outputs of a function are negated
Examples: −𝑓(𝑥) is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) reflected vertically through
the 𝑥-axis (the outputs are negated)
𝑓(−𝑥) is the graph of 𝑓(𝑥) reflected horizontally through
the 𝑦-axis (the inputs are negated)
Remember that when changes take place INside the parentheses, those
changes only effect the INputs, and we do the INverse operation.

The following examples contain only the transformations shifting and
reflecting. Stretching and compressing will be emphasized in the next two
sets of notes.
Example 1a: The graph of a function 𝑓 is shown below in red, along with
another graph labeled 1. Use transformations (shifting and/or reflecting
only) to express the graph labeled 1 in terms of 𝑓.
Notice that only the outputs have changed when going from the original
function 𝑓(𝑥) to the transformation 1. Keep in mind that the tables of
inputs and outputs will not show up on homework, quizzes, or exams.
You are welcome to make your own, but they are not required.

Example 1b: The graph of a function 𝑓 is shown below in red, along with
another graph labeled 2. Use transformations (shifting and/or reflecting
only) to express the graph labeled 2 in terms of 𝑓.
Think about what additional transformations have been made since the
previous example. After you determine the transformations, use ordered
pairs to check that the transformations you came up with are correct.

On Examples 1a, 1b, and 1c the transformations went in order, where each
successive transformation built on the previous one. There will be a
couple of homework problems like these, but there will also be homework
problems where each transformation is independent of the previous ones.
That is what we will see on the remaining examples, which will also
contain multiple transformations taking place at once.
Example 2: The graph of a function 𝑓 is shown below in red, along with
another graph labeled 1. Use transformations (shifting and/or reflecting
only) to express the graph labeled 1 in terms of 𝑓.

Once again, completing the tables of inputs and outputs is optional. These
tables will not show up anywhere else but in these notes. You are
welcome to make your own, but they are not required.
