To verify if your answers are correct, we can apply the given sets of transformations to the original function and check if the transformed points match the coordinates you provided.
For each set of transformations, let's go through the steps:
a) Reflected in the y-axis, horizontally stretched by a factor of 2, and vertically translated 2 units up:
To reflect a function in the y-axis, we replace x with -x. To horizontally stretch a function by a factor of 2, we divide x by 2. And to vertically translate a function 2 units up, we add 2 to the y-coordinate.
Applying these transformations to the original points:
(1,1) -> (-1/2 + 2, 2 + 2) = (3/2, 4)
(3,27) -> (-3/2 + 2, 27 + 2) = (1/2, 29)
(4,64) -> (-2 + 2, 64 + 2) = (0, 66)
The transformed points you provided are:
(1,1) -> (-2,3)
(3,27) -> (-6,29)
(4,64) -> (-8,66)
The transformed points you provided are correct for this set of transformations.
b) Vertically compressed by a factor of 1/2, horizontally stretched by a factor of 4, and vertically translated 6 units down:
To vertically compress a function by a factor of 1/2, we multiply the y-coordinate by 1/2. To horizontally stretch a function by a factor of 4, we multiply x by 4. And to vertically translate a function 6 units down, we subtract 6 from the y-coordinate.
Applying these transformations to the original points:
(1,1) -> (4, (1/2) - 6) = (4, -5.5)
(3,27) -> (12, (27/2) - 6) = (12, 7.5)
(4,64) -> (16, (64/2) - 6) = (16, 26)
The transformed points you provided are:
(1,1) -> (4,-5.5)
(3,27) -> (12,7.5)
(4,64) -> (16,26)
The transformed points you provided are correct for this set of transformations.
c) Horizontally stretched by a factor of 3, horizontally translated 3 units to the left, and vertically translated 3 units down:
To horizontally stretch a function by a factor of 3, we multiply x by 3. To horizontally translate a function 3 units to the left, we subtract 3 from x. And to vertically translate a function 3 units down, we subtract 3 from the y-coordinate.
Applying these transformations to the original points:
(1,1) -> (1(3) - 3, 1 - 3) = (0, -2)
(3,27) -> (3(3) - 3, 27 - 3) = (6, 24)
(4,64) -> (4(3) - 3, 64 - 3) = (9, 61)
The transformed points you provided are:
(1,1) -> (0,-2)
(3,27) -> (6,24)
(4,64) -> (9,58)
The transformed points you provided for this set of transformations do not match the correct coordinates. The correct y-coordinate for the last point (4,64) should be 61 instead of 58.
Therefore, the corrected transformed points for set c) are:
(1,1) -> (0,-2)
(3,27) -> (6,24)
(4,64) -> (9,61)
Please note the corrected coordinates for set c). Other than that, your answers for sets a) and b) are correct.
