76 The notation f(x) means function of x. A function of x is an expression which almost always varies and which will depend upon a given value of x. Examples : f(x) = 2x + 1 f(x) = x 2 f(x) = sin x f(4) = 9 f(4) = 16 f(4) = f(20) = 41 f(20) = 400 f(20) = Menu
77 We are going to look at the graphical effects on functions when changes are made to them. For example : f(x) = 2x + 1 f(x) = x 2 f(x) = sin x f(x) + a ( When a = 2 ) f(x) + 2 = 2x f(x) + 2 = x f(x) = sin x + 2 = 2x + 3 f(x) = 2x + 1f(x) = x 2 f(x) = sin x af(x) ( When a = 2 ) 2f(x) = 2(2x + 1) = 4x + 2 2f(x) = 2x 2 2f(x) = 2 sin x Menu
78 We are going to look at the graphical effects on functions when changes are made to them. For example : f(x) = 2x + 1 f(x) = x 2 f(x) = sin x f(ax) ( When a = 2 ) f(x) = 2x + 1 f(2x) = 2×2x + 1 = 4x + 1 f(x) = x 2 f(2x) = (2x) 2 = 4x 2 f(x) = sin x f(2x) = sin 2x f(x + a) ( When a = 2 ) f(x + 2) = 2(x + 2) + 1 = 2x + 5 f(x + 2) = (x + 2) 2 = x 2 + 4x + 4 f(x + 2) = sin (x + 2) Menu
79 We are going to look at the graphical effects on functions when changes are made to them. For example : f(x) = 2x + 1 f(x) = x 2 f(x) = sin x - f(x) f(x) = 2x f(x) = - (2x + 1) = -2x - 1 f(x) = x 2 - f(x) = - x 2 f(x) = sin x - f(x) = - sin x Menu
