    The graph of y=g(x)y = g(x) has a maximum turning point at (−1,6)(-1, 6).
    (a)
    Find the coordinates of the turning point of y=g(x)−5y = g(x) - 5, and state whether it is a maximum or a minimum.

  3. 3
    The graph of y=sin⁡xy = \sin x is transformed in two different ways: transformation P gives y=sin⁡x+2y = \sin x + 2, and transformation Q gives y=sin⁡(x+90)y = \sin(x + 90).
    (a)
    Describe fully transformation P, and state the maximum and minimum values of the transformed graph.
    [3 marks]
    (b)
    Describe fully transformation Q, and state the value of yy when x=0x = 0 on the transformed graph.

  4. 4
    A student is investigating the graph of y=f(x)=x2−6x+8y = f(x) = x^2 - 6x + 8, which can be written in completed square form as f(x)=(x−3)2−1f(x) = (x-3)^2 - 1.
    (a)
    By completing the square, find the coordinates of the turning point of y=f(x)y = f(x), and hence state the coordinates of the turning point of y=f(x)+5y = f(x) + 5.
    [4 marks]
    (b)
    State the coordinates of the turning point of y=f(x−2)y = f(x - 2), and explain how you obtained your answer using the rule for horizontal translations.
    [4 marks]
    (c)
    The graph of y=f(x)y = f(x) is reflected in the xx-axis to give y=−f(x)y = -f(x), then translated 33 units in the positive xx-direction. Find the coordinates of the turning point of the final graph, showing each transformation step and stating whether it is a maximum or minimum.
