Translations

Translations are when we move a graph without changing its shape.

Vertical translation

Vertical translation

  • Moves a function up or down. For y = f(x):
    • y = f(x) + a moves the graph up by a
    • y = f(x) - a moves the graph down by a
Horizontal translation

Horizontal translation

  • Moves a function left or right. For y = f(x):
    • y = f(x + a) moves the graph left by a
    • y = f(x - a) moves the graph right by a
