1) Explain and/or describe each translation from y=x^2y = x 2 to y=-6\left(x+4\right)^2-7y = − 6 ( x + 4 ) 2 − 7 (there are 4).

2) Explain why 8x^4 - 3x^2 + 3 is even, odd, or neither (Hint: Use Symmetry or f(-x)=f(x)).

Answer:

  1) vertical expansion by a factor of 6, reflection over the x-axis, translation left 4 units, translation down 7 units.

  2) all terms are of even degree: f(-x) = f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The leading minus sign means the function has been reflected over the x-axis. The leading coefficient of magnitude 6 is the vertical expansion factor. The 4 added to x is the number of units of left translation. The 7 subtracted from the previous expression is the number of units of translation downward.

The transformations are ...

  • reflection over the x-axis
  • vertical expansion by a factor of 6
  • horizontal translation left 4 units
  • vertical translation down 7 units

2) A function f(x) is even if it satisfies f(-x) = f(x). Since all x-terms in the given function are of even degree, we know this will be true:

  f(-x) = 8(-x)^4 -3(-x)^2 +3 = 8x^4 -3x^2 +3 = f(x)

f(x) is even because f(-x) = f(x) indicating it is symmetrical about x=0.
