What are wrong order of vertical operations?
Show answer
af(x)+da\,\mathrm{f}(x) + d stretches first, then translates; reversing them gives a different graph.
What are not moving the asymptotes?
Show answer
Asymptotes transform with the curve; a translated curve has translated asymptotes.
What is q1?
Show answer
Describe the transformation taking y=f(x)y = \mathrm{f}(x) to y=f(x)4y = \mathrm{f}(x) - 4. [1 mark]
What is q2?
Show answer
The point (1,6)(1, 6) lies on y=f(x)y = \mathrm{f}(x). Find its image on y=f(2x)y = \mathrm{f}(2x). [2 marks]
What is q3?
Show answer
Describe fully the transformations mapping y=cosxy = \cos x to y=cos(xπ2)y = \cos(x - \frac{\pi}{2}). [2 marks]
