Families of Functions

Michelle

Cool stuff to help my students explore families of functions.


  • 1. Function Transformations
  • 2. Investigating Multiplicity of Zeros of Polynomial Functions

1.

Function Transformations

Type in a parent function, such as f(x)=x^2. Adjust the sliders for a, b, h, and k to transform the function to y=g(x). Realize, a and b should never equal zero. Point P is on f(x); point Q is the transformed value. Press F11 key for full screen.

Investigating Multiplicity of Zeros of Polynomial Functions

Use the slider to change the power of the factor (x+2) in the polynomial function.
