5.1.1 Using Transformations to Graph Quadratic Functions - Practice

1.  Use a table to graph the function f ( x ) = − x 2 − 5 x − 6.

2.  Use a table to graph the function g ( x ) = − x 2 + x + 1.

3.  Using the graph f ( x ) = x 2 as a guide, describe the transformations and then graph g ( x ). = − + g x x ( ) ( 1) 2 2

5.  The parent function f ( x ) = x 2 is vertically compressed by a factor of 1/2 and translated 1 unit right and 3 units down to create g . Write the function g in vertex form.

6.  The parent function f ( x ) = x 2 is reflected across the x -axis, vertically stretched by a factor of 5, and translated 3 units down to create g . Write the function g in vertex form.
