Question

The function f(x) = sinx + 1 contains which type of transformation or change to its parent graph?

Answer 1

You know how sine is graphed, right?
f(x)=sinx <--- that's the parent function

f(x)=sinx + a
this is a vertical translation and this graph has f(x)=sinx translating up to number a units
f(x)=sinx + a
Translated down, vertically to number a units

makes sense?

Answer 2

Graph f(x)=sinx first

Answer 3

@famerdave are you there?

Answer 4

If you don't know how to graph it, i can help you graph f(x)=sinx

Answer 5

@Zale101 my trouble is graphing it. I didn't do well on last chapter, and now I'm supposed to transform them and I'm having trouble.

Answer 6

you can graph on this

Answer 7

type in
' sin x ' , in the box where it says 1

then type in
' sin x + 1 '

Answer 8

type that in for second function
