Parent Function Translations Investigation
In this activity, you will investigate transformations of parent functions. You will observe how altering different parts of each parent function will affect its graph in a similar way.
Later, as a class, we will derive a formula that will make it easier to graph complex equations by relating them to their corresponding parent function.
To complete this activity you will need to use the Desmos Applet.
