You'll learnto predict how four constants move and stretch a parent graph.
Every transformed function is a parent graph with four dials attached. The two constants outside the brackets do exactly what they say to the outputs. The two inside the brackets act on the inputs and run backward from the way they are written. Follow one marked point through each dial. Eleven short steps; press Next for each one.
outside obeys · inside reverses
Before you start
What you're looking at
A parent graph with one landmark point marked, ready to move.
The question
Where does that one point go under f(x) + 3, and then under f(x − 3)?
