Determine whether the graph of each equation is symmetric wrt the x-axis, the y-axis, the line y = x the line y = -x or none. 1. 2. Warm up
3
Lesson 3-2 Families of Graphs Objective: Identify transformations of simple graphs and sketch graphs of related functions.
4
A family of graphs is a group of graphs that displays 1 or more similar characteristics. Parent graph – the anchor graph from which the other graphs in the family are derived. Family of graphs
5
Identity Functions f(x) =x y always = whatever x is
6
Constant Function f(x) = c In this graph the domain is all real numbers but the range is c. c
7
Polynomial Functions f(x) = x 2 The graph is a parabola.
8
Square Root Function f(x)=
9
Absolute Value Function f(x) =|x|
10
Greatest Integer Function (Step) y=[[x]]
11
y=x -1 or 1/x Rational Function
12
A reflection is a “flip” of the parent graph. If y = f(x) is the parent graph: y = -f(x) is a reflection over the x-axis y =f(-x) is a reflection over the y-axis Reflections
13
Parent Graph y =x 3 y=-f(x) y=f(-x)
14
y=f(x)+c moves the parent graph up c units y=f(x) - c moves the parent graph down c units Translations

16
Translations y=f(x+c) moves the parent graph to the left c units y=f(x – c) moves the parent graph to the right c units
17
Translations y =f(x+c) 2 4 6 8 x y = f(x) -2-4 -6 2 4 6 -2 -4 -6 Horizontal Translations f(x) f(x - 5) f(x + 2) 5 2 In other words, ‘+’ inside the brackets means move to the LEFT
18
Translations y=c f(x); c>1 expands the parent graph vertically (narrows) y=c f(x); 0<c<1 compresses the parent graph vertically (widens)
19
Translations y=cf(x) 2 4 6 8 x y = f(x) -2-4 -6 10 20 30 -10 -20 -30 0 The graph of cf(x) gives a stretch of f(x) by scale factor c in the y direction. f(x) 2f(x) 3f(x) 0 Points located on the x axis remain fixed. Stretches in the y direction y co-ordinates doubled y co-ordinates tripled

21
y=f(cx); c>1 compresses the parent graph horizontally (narrows) y=f(cx); 0<c<1 expands the parent graph horizontally (widens) Translations
22
Translations y=f(cx) ½ the x co-ordinate 0 2 4 6 8 x y = f(x) -2-4 -6 2 4 6 -2 -4 -6 f(x) f(2x) f(3x) The graph of f(cx) gives a stretch of f(x) by scale factor 1/c in the x direction. 1/3 the x co-ordinate Stretches in x
23
