Period 1/2

 y=ax^2+bx+c is shown as the blue graph.

The a variable controls how wide the

parabola is; the further away from zero,

the wider the parabola is.

The purple parabola demonstrates how

the d variable changes the vertical

position of the graph; either going up or
down.

The orange graph demonstrates the c

variable and how it changes the

horizontal position of the graph; in this
case it moves to the right 5 times since
the c is negative.

The green graph also demonstrates the

c variable as the graph is shifted twice

to the left since the c is positive.

 y=a sin b(x-k)+c is shown as the base

function of f(x)=sinx in the blue graph.

The green graph shows how the b

variable changes the horizontal period

length as 2 is b.

The purple graph demonstrates how the

k variable changes the vertical position

of the graph, similar to the d value; in
this case its -2 so the graph moves down
twice in the negative direction.

The orange shows how the a variable

changes/increases the amplitude of the

graph as a gets further away from zero;
2 is a so the amplitude increased/
stretched vertically.

 y=a cos b(x-k)+c is shown as the base

function of f(x)=cosx in the purple graph.

The red graph demonstrates how the b

variable condenses the period length

horizontally as b is further away from
zero; the period is condensed compared to
the original base function since b is now
3.

The blue graph demonstrates the b

variable stretches the graph horizontally by

dividing the input by b which is 2 in this
case.

The green graph demonstrates how a

increases the vertical amplitude as a gets

further from zero and reflects the graph
upon the x-axis due to it being negative; in
this case, its -2. This graph also shows how
the k value changes the vertical position
of the graph; since k is -1, the graph
moved down once.

 y=a(x+b)^3+c is shown as the base

function of f(x)=x^3 in the red graph.

The blue graph demonstrates how a

negative a variable reflects the graph

upon the x-axis. This graph also shows
how the d variable changes the
horizontal position of the graph; since b
is -3, the graph moved 3 times to the
right.

The green graph demonstrates how the

a variable stretches the graph

horizontally as a get closer to zero;
since is a, the graph stretches
horizontally.

The purple graph shows how the c

variable changes the vertical position of

the graph; since c is +4 the graph
moves upward 4 times.

 y= a|x-h|+k is shown as the base

function of f(x)=|x| in the red graph.

The blue graph demonstrates how the h

variable changes the horizontal position

of the graph; in this case, h is +1, so
the graph shifts to left once.

The green graph demonstrates how a

negative a variable reflects the graph

upon the x-axis. This graph also shows
how the k variable changes the vertical
position of the graph; since k is +1,
the graph shifts up once.

The purple graph also demonstrates how

the a variable makes the graph

horizontally narrower as a goes further
away from zero; in this case, a is 3, so
the graph condenses horizontally.

 y=a x+b +c is shown as the base

function of f(x)=x in the red graph.

The blue graph demonstrates how a

negative a value makes the graph

reflect upon the x-axis.

The green graph demonstrates how

the b value shifts the graph

horizontally; since +2 is b, the
graph shifts twice to the left.

The purple graph also demonstrates

how the b value shifts the graph

horizontally; since -3 is b, the
graph shifts three times to the right.

 y= a ln(b(x-c))+d is shown as the base

function of f(x)=logx in the red graph.

The orange graph demonstrates how the

a value stretches the graph horizontally

as a gets closer to zero; since a is -2,
the graph becomes wider and reflects
upon the x-axis due to the negative.

The blue graph demonstrates how the b

value stretches the graph vertically and a

negative input makes the graph reflect
upon the y-axis.

The green graph demonstrates how the

d value changes the vertical position of

the graph; in this case, d is , so the
graph shifts upward half of a unit.

 y=a^(bx+d)+c is shown as the parent

function of f(x)=a^x in the red graph.

The blue graph demonstrates how the a

value stretches the graph horizontally as

a gets further from zero (in this case
the graph stays the same size). This
graph also demonstrates how the d
value moves the graph horizontally; since
d is +3 the graph shifted to the left.

The green graph demonstrates how a

negative a value makes the graph

reflect upon the x-axis.

The purple graph demonstrates how a

negative b value make the graph reflect

upon the y-axis.

 y=a/x-h +k is shown as the base

function of f(x)=1/x in the red graph.

The blue graph demonstrates how a

negative a value makes the graph

reflect upon the x-axis.

The green graph demonstrates how

the h value moves the graph

horizontally; since h is -4, the
graph shifts to the right 3 times.

The purple graph demonstrates how

the a value stretches/widens the

graph horizontally as a is further
from zero; in this case, a is 2, so
the graph stretched horizontally.

 y= a/x^2 -h+k is shown as the base

function of f(x)=1/x^2 in the red graph.

The blue graph demonstrates how the h

value shifts the graph horizontally; in

this case, h is -2, so the graph shifts
to the right twice. This graph also
demonstrates how a negative a value
makes the graph reflect upon the x-axis.

The purple graph demonstrates how the

a value stretches the graph horizontally

as a is further from zero. Also, the
graph reflects upon the x-axis since the
a value is negative; in this case, a is
-3.

The orange graph demonstrates how the

k value moves the vertical position of

the graph; since k is +3, the graph
shifts upward three times.
