Simple Function Tranformations

In the text field, insert the basic parent function you wish to have graphed using LaTeX entry methods. (For example enter "x^2" to graph the basic quadratic function, "sqrt(x)" for the graph of a square root function, "abs(x)" for the graph of an absolute value function.) f(x) will display the parent function in blue and g(x) will be the transformed function in red. You may then use the sliders to transform f(x): "a" is the vertical scaling factor "b" is the horizontal shift value "c" is the vertical shift value Notice the relationship between the displayed points (A, B, C, D, E) on f(x) and their transformed images (A', B', C', D', E').
