2. 2-1: Graphs of Basic Functions and Relations; Symmetry Continuity- a function that can be drawn over an interval of it’s domain without lifting the pencil If a function is not continuous, then it may have a point of discontinuity or it may a vertical asymptote (we will talk about asymptotes in ch 4) point of discontinuity at:nu continuous over intervals:

7. Symmetry with respect to the y-axis If a function f is defined so that f(-x) = f(x) For all x in its domain, then the graph of f is symmetric with respect to the y- axis. If (a, b) is on the graph, so is (-a, b) If a function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, we can fold the graph in half along the y-axis.

9. Symmetry with Respect to the Origin If a function f is defined so that f(-x) = -f(x) For all x in its domain, then the graph is symmetric with respect to the origin You can also rotate the graph 180 degrees and find the same graph If (a, b) is on the graph, then so is (-a, -b)

15. Even and Odd Functions A function f is called an even function if f(-x) = f(x) for all x in the domain. (it is symmetric with respect to the y-axis) A function f is called an odd function if f(-x) = -f(x) for all x in the domain. (its graph is symmetric with respect to the origin) x-3-20123 f(x)5310135 x-3-20123 f(x)5310-3-5

17. 2-2 Vertical and Horizontal Shifts of Graphs

18. Each of those examples show a vertical shift or a vertical translation. Vertical Shifting occurs by shifting the graph upward a distance of c when c>0 or downward a distance of c when c<0 y = f(x) + c

19. 2-2 Vertical and Horizontal Shifts of Graphs

20. Each of those show horizontal shift or a horizontal translation Horizontal Shifting occurs by shifting the graph right a distance of c when c>0 or left a distance of c when c<0 y = f(x - c) *Horizontal shifting goes in the opposite direction of what is with the x!!! (look for what would make it zero)

21. 2-2 Vertical and Horizontal Shifts of Graphs

22. Domains and Ranges of shifted graphs Vertical translations can affect the RANGE Horizontal translations can affect the DOMAIN DOMAIN: RANGE: shift graph left 2 DOMAIN: RANGE: shift graph down 2 DOMAIN: RANGE:

24. 2-3 Stretching, Shrinking, and Reflecting Graphs

25. These are all examples of vertical stretching or shrinking Vertical Stretching- If a point (x, y) lies on the graph of y = f(x), then (x, cy) lies on the graph of y = c f(x). If c > 1, then this is vertical stretching Vertical Shrinking- If 0 < x < 1, then this is vertical shrinking

26. 2-3 Stretching, Shrinking, and Reflecting Graphs Horizontal stretching and skrinking If a point (x, y) lies on the graph of y = f(x), then the point (x/c, y) lies on the graph of y = f(x). For the graph y = f(cx), If 0 < c < 1, then this is an example of horizontal stretching If c > 1, then this is an example of horizontal shrinking

27. 2-3 Stretching, Shrinking, and Reflecting Graphs

28. Reflecting across an axis The graph y = -f(x) is a reflection across the x-axis The graph y = f(-x) is a reflection across the y-axis
