Transformation y = |f(x)|

Transformation y = |f(x)|

Negative values of y are reflected in x-axis

Transformation y = f(x) + a

+a in y-axis

Transformation y = f(x + a)

-a in x-axis

Transformation y = af(x)

All y-coordinates ×a

Transformation y = f(ax)

All x-coordinates ÷a

Transformation y = -f(x)

Reflection in x-axis

Transformation y = f(-x)

Reflection in y-axis

When is a binomial expansion valid (yr13)?

For (a + bx)ⁿ, valid when | bx/a | < 1

or |x| < a/b

x = aⁿ as a log?

n = log_ax

log_a (x^k) rearranged

klog_ax

log(xy)

log(x) + log(y)

log(x/y)

log(x) - log(y)
