well the second function will move down vertically by 3

OpenStudy (ccswims):

hence why it says - 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

From the parent function \(\Large \sf y=f(x)\) Transformations: \(\sf \LARGE y= \color{blue}{a}f(\color{red}{k}(x-\color{green}{d}))+\color{orange}{c}\) \(\color{blue}{a}\) is vertical stretch/compression |\(\color{blue}{a}\)| > 1 stretches |\(\color{blue}{a}\)| < 1 compresses \(\color{blue}{a}\) < 0 flips the graph upside down \(\color{red}{k}\) is horizontal stretch/compression |\(\color{red}{k}\)| > 1 compresses |\(\color{red}{k}\)| < 1 stretches \(\color{red}{k}\) < 0 flips the graph left-right \(\color{green}{d}\) is horizontal shift \(\color{green}{d}\) < 0 shifts to the right \(\color{green}{d}\) > 0 shifts to the left \(\color{orange}{c}\) is vertical shift \(\color{orange}{c}\) > 0 shifts upward \(\color{orange}{c}\) < 0 shifts downward Your parent function is \(\Large \sf y=1/x\) Apply Transformations: \(\sf \LARGE y=\frac{ \color{blue}{a}}{(\color{red}{k}(x-\color{green}{d}))}+\color{orange}{c}\)

so for the first 1. \(\color{blue}{a}\) = -2, less than 0, so the function will ? it is also greater than 1, so it will? \(\color{green}{d}\)= 1 , greater than 0, so it will ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the second, you have three transformations that you have to apply not only the vertical shift

OpenStudy (anonymous):

flips the graph upside down and shifts to the right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the first one, yes you're right flip upside down and ..? (vertical stretch or compression) and yes it will shift horizontally right (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

compress

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope, \(\color{blue}a\) is GREATER than 1.. so it should be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

stretch

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes (: can you do the second one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think so :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try it, ill check it for you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

vertical stretch, horizontal shift to the right, and vertical shift down?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right, you got it! ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YAY!!! Thank you so much!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem, as long as you learn ;p goodluck!
