  1. Horizontal Translation of an Exponential Function
    Sketch and compare the graphs of the exponential function y=2xy=2^x and
    i)
    y=2(x+1)y=2^{(x+1)}
    ii)
    y=2(x2)y=2^{(x-2)}

    Did the transformation affect the horizontal asymptote?
    Exponents: Product rule (a^x)(a^y) = a^(x+y)

    Notes
    Do you know how to sketch and state transformations of exponential functions graphs? How about applying transformations to exponential functions including, horizontal shift, vertical shift, horizontal expansion/compression, vertical expansion/compression, reflection and inverse? You will learn them all in this lesson!
    y=acb(xh)+ky=a \cdot c^{b(x-h)}+k
    a=a = vertical expansion/compression
    b=b = horizontal expansion /compression
    h=h = horizontal translation
    k=k = vertical translation
    • Reflection?
