Exam questions on Transformations of graphs

  1. The graph of y=f(x)y=f(x) has a minimum point at (2,−3)(2,-3).
    Find the coordinates of the minimum point of the graph of y=2f(x+1)y=2f(x+1).2 marks
  2. The graph of y=sin⁡xy=\sin x, for 0∘≤x≤360∘0^\circ\le x\le360^\circ, has a maximum point at (90∘,1)(90^\circ,1).
    Find the coordinates of the first maximum point of y=sin⁡(x−30∘)y=\sin(x-30^\circ) for x>0∘x>0^\circ.2 marks
  3. The graph of y=f(x)y=f(x) has equation y=1xy=\frac1x for x≠0x\neq0.
    The graph of y=f(x)y=f(x) is transformed to give the graph of y=f(x+2)−3y=f(x+2)-3. Describe the transformation and state the equations of the asymptotes of the new graph.3 marks
