HSF.BF.B.3

Identify the effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by f(x) + k,k f(x),f(kx),and f(x + k) for specific values of k (k, a constant both positive and negative). Find the value of k given the graphs of the transformed functions. Experiment with multiple transformations and illustrate an explanation of the effects on the graph with or without technology. Include recognizing even and odd functions from their graphs and algebraic expressions for them.

Example Problems
The graph of is shifted to the left by 5 units.

What is the equation of the new graph?
The graph of is reflected across the y-axis only.

What is the equation of the new graph?
The parabola is reflected across the -axis.

What is the equation of the new parabola?
