5.2.4 Transforming Linear Functions − Worksheet

Example 1:

Graph f ( x ) and g ( x ). Then describe the transformation from the graph of f ( x ) to the graph of g ( x ). 1. f ( x ) = x , g ( x ) = x − 4 2. f ( x ) = x , g ( x ) = x + 1

3. f ( x ) = x , g ( x ) = x + 2

4. f ( x ) = x , g ( x ) = x − 6.5

Example 2:

Graph f ( x ) and g ( x ). Then describe the transformation from the graph of f ( x ) to the graph of g ( x ).

7. f ( x ) = 2 x − 2, g ( x ) = 4 x − 2

8. f ( x ) = x + 1, g ( x ) =

x + 1

Example 3: Graph f ( x ). Then reflect the graph of f ( x ) across the y -axis. Write a function g ( x ) to describe the new graph.
