2.3B Horizontal and Vertical Translations

The document discusses horizontal and vertical translations of functions. It defines vertical translations as g(x) = f(x) + c, where if c > 0 the graph moves up and if c < 0 it moves down. Horizontal translations are defined as g(x) = f(x - d), where if d > 0 the graph moves right and if d < 0 it moves left. The document provides examples of translating common functions both vertically and horizontally and discusses how the domain and range are affected.

Lesson 2.3B: Horizontal and Vertical Translations of Functions


Part A: Vertical Translations
Using Desmos, describe the transformations to the base graph in each case.
Graph a couple of equations at a time so that you can see the transformation from the base function.

a) BASE FUNCTION
b) graph moves Think about
the Domain and
c) graph moves Range as you
graph....

d) BASE FUNCTION
e) graph moves
f) graph moves

Try graphing the base function along with each of these:

g) Base Function: graph moves

h) Base Function: graph moves

General Result

g(x) = f(x) + c is a vertical translation of the graph of f(x).

If c > 0, the graph of f(x) moves UP c units .


If c < 0, the graph of f(x) moves DOWN c units .

The domain does not change . The range can change .


x‐values are not affected . y‐values are affected .
OUTSIDE
c is ________________ of the function so no x‐values change.

Part B ‐ Horizontal Translations


Graph the following using Desmos and compare to the base function.

1. Graph and the equations below. Describe the transformations.

a)
b)

2. Graph and the equations below. Describe the transformations.

a)
b)

General Result

g(x) = f(x ‐ d) is a horizontal translation of the graph of f(x).

If d > 0, the graph of f(x) moves RIGHT d units .


If d < 0, the graph of f(x) moves LEFT d units .

The domain can change . The range does not change .


x‐values are affected . y‐values are not affected .
d is ________________
INSIDE the function so no y‐values change.

This transformation is the opposite of what you think because the x‐coord
must compensate for its change in order for the y‐coord to stay the same.
