Transformations: Basic Family of Functions

In this activity you will use a slider to change the basic (parent) functions. You will be able to change value of the sliders [math]a_0[/math], [math]a_i[/math], h, and k to transform the function by moving these sliders. The [math]r_0[/math] and [math]r_i[/math] allow your to reflect outside and inside of the function change you results. There are two check boxes to permit the user to easily demonstrate the results of a vertical or horizontal line test. The [math]a_0[/math] and the [math]a_i[/math] represent the effects of multipliers outside of the function f(x) and inside the parenthesis of f(x), sometimes these multipliers when used separately produce the same graph. When [math]a_0[/math] or [math]a_i[/math] are zero, the resulting graph is a constant function.[br]
