Translating to the right 6 and compressing the function horizontally by half will result in the same graph. The common mistake there is compressing with respect to the vertex rather than the y-axis.
My professor uses software like statcrunch to teach our class, and then most people like barely follow along but, I see the use of software if you were doing statistics for an occupation like 24/7, but I rather learn by a calculator first, so thanks.
Your explanation is pretty good as usual however, I have a point to clarify. As for the order of transformation, shouldn’t it be opposite of bidmas as they are connected with only horizontal transformations?
Hi Eddie, what software are you using here? I use desmos when I teach this sort of thing but I'd love to be able to write on the screen like that without having to switch back to openboard.
I am confused somehow... Are we really applying the order operation to the transformations? Because it seems to me that with f(2(x-3)), the order of operations says to take care of whatever is inside the parenthesis first, but we're actually doing the horizontal shrink which is the multiplication that is outside the parenthesis. I feel like we are more like following the order of "unwrapping an expression/equation". Shifting 6 units right then shrinking half is the same as shrinking half then shifting 3 units right. Now I just don't see the point of factoring what's inside the f( ) if we just want to graph a function.
I'm glad I'm not the only person who had this thought. It seems to me that he's confusing things here. He says that the order of operations for transforming graphs is the same as for normal calculations, but that's only true because he's factorised it (thereby changing the order of the calculations). I think it would be more accurate (and less confusing) to say: when dealing with transformations outside of the brackets (for transformations in the y-direction), the order to apply them in follows BODMAS; when dealing with transformations *inside* the function brackets (which affect the x-direction), the transformations should be applied in the opposite order (SAMDOB!); and between y-based and x-based transformations, the order doesn't matter, beccause they don't affect each other.
f(2x-6) at x = 4 f(2(4) - 6) = f(8 - 6) = f(2) on the original graph, f(x), f(2) = 4 thus at x = 4, y = f(2x-6) = 4 (which is not 5, so it is indeed 4 and not 5)
@@matemaatika-math because at X=4, the "new" graph is at f(2). then proceeding back to the original function/graph, we see visually that at X=2, the corresponding y value is 4. or in other words f(X) = 4 at X=2, or f(2) =4
@@user-pv5hd1vu1t Now, I get what you mean, however you still explain a very complicated way. What I still don't get is why is f(2) important as the final abstsiss is x = 5, not x = 2. Now, I also get what the starter of this thread thought. They interchanged x and y. -4 * 5 ^ 2 + 32 * 5 - 60 === 0. And -4 * 4 ^ 2 + 32 * 4 - 60 === 4. If we want to calculate f(2) for the final function then we get -4 * 2 ^ 2 + 32 * 2 - 60 === -16.
First integrate 2x by answering the following question: Which function has a a derivative that is 2x? Answer is of course x^2 and you could add a constant but in this context you don’t need to. Then just calculate 13^2 - 10^2 and you are done!
What do you mean by mentioning that graph initially starts at y= -x^2 -2? That graph isn't on the picture as it'd have 2^(1/2) and -2^(1/2) as intersection positions on x-axis not 0 and 4.
@@TheBallzin I still don't get what you want to tell with your stated initial function as it's actually y = -x^2 + 4 * x? The final position isn't translated to what you've written but it's translated using that function. The final function is -4 * x^2 + 32 * x - 60.

another way to think about f(ax - b)
first translate b units to the right
then with the current translated graph you have, (x , y) values turn into (x/a , y)
In the context of this example:
f(x) has points at (-1,-5) , (0,0) , (1,3) , (2,4) , (3,3) , (4,0) , and (5,-5)
we want f(2x-6)
first, translating six units to the right gives
(-1 + 6,-5) , (0 + 6,0) , (1+6,3) , (2+6,4) , (3+6,3) , (4+6,0) , and (5+6,-5)
(5,-5) , (6,0), (7,3) , (8,4), (9,3), (10,0), (11,-5)
Then applying the dilation:
(5/2,-5) , (6/2,0), (7/2,3) , (8/2,4), (9/2,3), (10/2,0), (11/2,-5)
We get our points (2.5,-5), (3,0), (3.5,3), (4,4), (4.5,3), (5,0), (5.5, -5)
yeah thanks for joining this discussion and helping explain everything! Math is fun!
How come we half it instead of multiplying it by 2?

same with y = f(2x-b)
then let's take the inverse
2x - b = y^-1 {note this is not 1/y, but rather the inverse function of y}
2x = y^-1 + b
x = 0.5(y^-1 + b)
^if written like this, then you would see the x-values are halving indeed, but written in original form f(2x-b), you see that it has that "reverse pattern halving instead of doubling"
hopefully that made it clear.

Hi, which tool/software do you use?
Notability, he made a video a couple months ago explaining his setup, and there's more info on his second channel Wootube2.
I think I'm really rusty because if you plug in an x value of 4 in the final equation shouldn't you get a y value of 5?
f(2x-6)
at x = 4
f(2(4) - 6) = f(8 - 6) = f(2)
on the original graph, f(x), f(2) = 4
thus at x = 4, y = f(2x-6) = 4 (which is not 5, so it is indeed 4 and not 5)
