3. 3 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved TRANSFORMATIONS If a new function is formed by performing certain operations on a given function f, then the graph of the new function is called a transformation of the graph of f.

6. 6 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 1 Graphing Vertical Shifts Solution continued Graph the equations. The graph of y = |x| + 2 is the graph of y = |x| shifted two units up. The graph of y = |x| – 3 is the graph of y = |x| shifted three units down.

7. 7 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved VERTICAL SHIFT Let d > 0. The graph of y = f (x) + d is the graph of y = f (x) shifted d units up, and the graph of y = f (x) – d is the graph of y = f (x) shifted d units down.

A table of values for f, g, and h is given on the next slide. The graphs of the three functions f, g, and h are shown on the following slide. Describe how the graphs of g and h relate to the graph of f.

10. 10 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 2 Writing Functions for Horizontal Shifts

11. 11 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 2 Writing Functions for Horizontal Shifts All three functions are squaring functions. Solution The x-intercept of f is 0. The x-intercept of g is 2. a.g is obtained by replacing x with x – 2 in f. For each point (x, y) on the graph of f, there will be a corresponding point (x + 2, y) on the graph of g. The graph of g is the graph of f shifted 2 units to the right.

12. 12 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 2 Writing Functions for Horizontal Shifts Solution continued The x-intercept of f is 0. The x-intercept of h is –3. b.h is obtained by replacing x with x + 3 in f. For each point (x, y) on the graph of f, there will be a corresponding point (x – 3, y) on the graph of h. The graph of h is the graph of f shifted 3 units to the left. The tables confirm both these considerations.

13. 13 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved HORIZONTAL SHIFT The graph of y = f (x – c) is the graph of y = f (x) shifted |c| units to the right, if c > 0, to the left if c < 0.

15. 15 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 3 Step 2 Identify the constants d and c in the transformation g (x) = f (x – c ) + d. Step 3 Since c = –2 < 0, the graph of is the graph of f shifted horizontally two units to the left. Graphing Combined Vertical and Horizontal Shifts Solution continued d

17. 17 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved REFLECTION IN THE x -AXIS The graph of y = – f (x) is a reflection of the graph of y = f (x) in the x-axis. If a point (x, y) is on the graph of y = f (x), then the point (x, –y) is on the graph of y = – f (x).

18. 18 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved REFLECTION IN THE x -AXIS

19. 19 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved REFLECTION IN THE y -AXIS The graph of y = f (–x) is a reflection of the graph of y = f (x) in the y-axis. If a point (x, y) is on the graph of y = f (x), then the point (–x, y) is on the graph of y = f (–x).

26. 26 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 5 Stretching or Compressing a Function Vertically Solution continued The graph of y = 2|x| is the graph of y = |x| vertically stretched (expanded) by multiplying each of its y–coordinates by 2. The graph of |x| is the graph of y = |x| vertically compressed (shrunk) by multiplying each of its y–coordinates by.

27. 27 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved VERTICAL STRETCHING OR COMPRESSING The graph of y = a f (x) is obtained from the graph of y = f (x) by multiplying the y-coordinate of each point on the graph of y = f (x) by a and leaving the x-coordinate unchanged. The result is 1.A vertical stretch away from the x-axis if a > 1; 2. A vertical compression toward the x-axis if 0 < a < 1. If a < 0, the graph of f is first reflected in the x-axis, then vertically stretched or compressed.

28. 28 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved HORIZONTAL STRETCHING OR COMPRESSING The graph of y = f (bx) is obtained from the graph of y = f (x) by multiplying the x-coordinate of each point on the the graph of y = f (x) by and leaving the y-coordinate unchanged. The result is 1.A horizontal stretch away from the y-axis if 0 < b < 1; 2. A horizontal compression toward the y-axis if b > 1.

29. 29 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved HORIZONTAL STRETCHING OR COMPRESSING If b < 0, first obtain the graph of f (|b|x) by stretching or compressing the graph of y = f (x) horizontally. Then reflect the graph of y = f (|b|x) in the y-axis.

40. 40 © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved EXAMPLE 8 Using Poiseuille’s Law for Arterial Blood Flow The velocity of the blood decreases from the center of the artery (r = 0) to the artery wall (r = 3), where it ceases to flow. The portions of the graphs corresponding to negative values of r do not have any physical significance, but it is somewhat easier to work with the familiar graph of y = r 2. Solution continued
