Understanding Transformations: Reflection, Translation, and Scaling Step-by-Step
In this tutorial, we analyze the effects of various transformations on a curve. Initially, the curve undergoes three transformations: reflection about the y-axis, translation 4 units in the positive x-direction, and scaling parallel to the y-axis by a factor of 2. To determine the original curve, we reverse these transformations - undoing the reflection, translating 4 units in the negative x-direction, and scaling parallel to the y-axis by a factor of ½. This step-by-step guide clarifies the process of unraveling transformations in mathematical functions.

Tutorial 4 Question 5 • First, let’s write out what happened originally. A: Reflection about the y-axis; B: Translation of 4 units in the positivex-direction; C: Scaling parallel to the y-axis by a factor of 2.
Tutorial 4 Question 5 • Since we have the final transformed curve and we’re interested in the original curve, we undo the transformations in reverse order to figure it out. Undo A: Reflection about the y-axis; Undo B: Translation of 4 units in the negativex-direction; Undo C: Scaling parallel to the y-axis by a factor of ½ .
