Algebra 1 - Graph Transformations

This post explains and give practice opportunities related to TEKS A.3E:

determine the effects on the graph of the parent function f(x) = x when f(x) is replaced by af(x), f(x) + d, f(x - c), f(bx) for specific values of a, b, c, and d

Instruction

Students learn how parent functions are affected when child functions either multiply the slope (affect the steepness) or add to the y-intercept (shift up or down).

STAAR Practice

Between 2016 and 2023 (including redesign practice), this supporting standard has been tested 7 times on the STAAR test. Videos explaining the problems can be found below. If you'd rather take a quiz over these questions, click here. The videos below are linked to the questions in the quiz as answer explanations after the quiz is submitted.
