Exam questions on Transformations of graphs

  1. The curve y=f(x)y=f(x) has a minimum point at (3,−2)(3,-2).
    Write down the coordinates of the minimum point of the curve y=2f(x−1)y=2f(x-1).2 marks
  2. The curve y=f(x)y=f(x) crosses the xx-axis at (−2,0)(-2,0) and (3,0)(3,0) only, and crosses the yy-axis at (0,6)(0,6).
    Describe fully the single transformation that maps y=f(x)y=f(x) onto y=f(x+2)y=f(x+2), and write down the xx-intercepts of y=f(x+2)y=f(x+2).2 marks
  3. The function ff is defined by f(x)=x2−4x+7f(x)=x^2-4x+7.
    Show that the curve y=f(x+1)y=f(x+1) has equation y=x2−2x+4y=x^2-2x+4.3 marks
