4.6 Transformations of Exponential Functions

Consider the function 5

Recall:
x
What should these values represent? 0
-6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6

a: vertical stretch of ; if a is negative (reflect on the x axis)

-5
k: horizontal stretch of ; if k is negative (reflect on the y axis)

c: vertical shift c units

d: horizontal shift d units

Example 1: Fill in the table below.

Base Function Domain & Range Transformations New Function Equation


a) Domain Vertical shift down 3
and horizontal shift
Range right 1

b) Domain Vertical shift up 3 and


horizontal shift left 2
Range

x y
Now graph both functions.

A) New Fcn:
y

0 x
-6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6

-5
y

5
B) New Fcn:

x y

0 x
-6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6

-5
Example 2. For the following three functions fill in the chart below:

Exponential Domain Range Y – intercept Asymptote


Function
Y= Y=

Y= Y=

Y= Y=

Conclusion:

For a function

The domain is:


The range is:

The y – intercept is:

The asymptote is:

Example 3.
Sketch and label each function: (use mappings)
