Lesson 4-3 Transforming the Absolute Value Parent Function Day 2

Including Vertex, Axis of Symmetry, Domain and Range—Interval and set notation

Transformation “Quick” Notes


Transform left to right:

• Reflection across x-axis: y = –f(x)

• Vertical Stretch/Compression: y = af(x)


|a| > 1 stretch (expansion); |a| < 1 compression (shrink)

• Reflection across y-axis: y = f(–x)

• Horizontal Stretch/Compression: y = f( 1 x)
b
(reminder - reciprocal)
1 1
> 1 stretch (expansion); < 1 compression (shrink)
b b

• Horizontal shift (right/left): y = f(x – h) right


y = f(x + h) left

** Factor out any negative or coefficient (other than one)


Example: for y = f(–2x – 6) , factor out –2
y = f(–2(x + 3))
1
reflection across y-axis, then horizontal compression by then left 3
2

• Vertical shift (up/down): y = f(x) + k up


y = f(x) – k down
*These notes are written for an "easy" way to learn; they are not written with proper math terms.
To graph an absolute value function of the form
1
g(x) = a| (x − h)| + k, apply the transformations of f(x) = |x|
b
using the normal order of operations (yes , order matters):
1. a -

2. b -

3. h -

4. k -

EXAMPLE:
Describe the transformations of g(x) = 2|x + 3| from the parent
absolute value function. Analyze and graph g(x).
Transformations:
1. vertical stretch by a factor of 2 (each point is twice the number of
units away from the x-axis)
2. horizontal translation left 3 units (each point moved left 3 units)

Vertex: (–3, 0)
Axis of Symmetry: x = –3
Give the domain and range using interval notation.
