Chris wanted to transform the graph of the parent function by horizontally compressing it so that it has a period of units, horizontally translating it units to the right, and vertically translating it 1 unit up. To do so, he graphed the function , as shown. What did he do wrong?

Question illustration
A
He graphed the function incorrectly because he didn’t translate the graph of the parent function 1 unit up.
Option A
B
He graphed the function incorrectly because the period of the transformed function is not units.
Option B
C
He graphed the function correctly, but it was not the right function to graph. He should have graphed .
Option C
D
He graphed the function correctly, but it was not the right function to graph. He should have graphed .
Option D

Eve’s teacher asked her to graph the function by reflecting the graph of the function about the x-axis and translating it vertically. Does it matter in which order Eve does the transformations?

Question illustration
A
Yes, it matters. The graph of the function should be reflected about the x-axis before it is translated 1 unit down.
Option A
B
Yes, it matters. The graph of the function should be reflected about the x-axis before it is translated 1 unit up.
Option B
C
No, it doesn’t matter. Reflecting the graph of the function about the x-axis and translating the graph 1 unit down in either order will produce the correct graph.
Option C
D
No, it doesn’t matter. Reflecting the graph of the function about the x-axis and translating the graph 1 unit up in either order will produce the correct graph.
Option D
