Describe how the graph of each function is related to the graph of f (x) = x .
2
1. g(x) = x − 11
SOLUTION: 2
The graph of f (x) = x + c represents a translation up or down of the parent graph. Since c = –11, the translation is
down. So, the graph is shifted down 11 units from the parent function.
2. h(x) =
x
2
SOLUTION: 2
The graph of f (x) = ax stretches or compresses the parent graph vertically. Since a =
, the graph of y =
2
x is
2
the graph of y = x vertically compressed.
2
3. h(x) = −x + 8
SOLUTION: 2
The function can be written f (x) = ax + c, where a = –1 and c = 8. Since a is –1, the graph is reflected across the
2
2
x-axis. Since c = 8 the graph is translated up 8 units. So, the graph of y = –x +8 is the graph of y = x reflected
across the x-axis and translated up 8 units.

3. h(x) = −x + 8
SOLUTION: 2
The function can be written f (x) = ax + c, where a = –1 and c = 8. Since a is –1, the graph is reflected across the
2
2
x-axis. Since c = 8 the graph is translated up 8 units. So, the graph of y = –x +8 is the graph of y = x reflected
across the x-axis and translated up 8 units.
2
4. g(x) = x + 6
SOLUTION: 2
The graph of f (x) = x + c represents a translation up or down of the parent graph. Since c = 6, the translation is up.
So, the graph is shifted up 6 units from the parent function.
5. g(x) = −4x
2
SOLUTION: 2
2
The coefficient of the x -term is negative, so the graph is reflected across the x-axis. The graph of f (x) = ax
stretches or compresses the parent graph vertically. Since a = 4, the graph is vertically stretched. So, the graph of y
2
2
= −4x is the graph of y = x reflected across the x-axis and vertically stretched.

A g(x) =
2
x +2
B g(x) = −5x2 − 2
C g(x) =
2
x −2
D g(x) = − x2 − 2
SOLUTION: 2
The function is a parabola which can be written f (x) = ax + c. Since the graph opens upward, the leading
coefficient must be positive, so eliminate choices B and D. The parabola is translated down 2 units, so c = –2. This
eliminates choice A. The only equation for the function shown in the graph is g(x) =
2
x − 2. So, the correct choice
is C.

8. g(x) = −10 + x
2
SOLUTION: 2
The graph of f (x) = x + c represents a translation up or down of the parent graph. Since c = –10, the translation is
down. So, the graph is shifted down 10 units from the parent function.

29. ROCKS A rock falls from a cliff 300 feet above the ground. Another rock falls from a cliff 700 feet above the
ground.
a. Write functions that model the height h of each rock after t seconds.
b. If the rocks fall at the same time, how much sooner will the first rock reach the ground?
SOLUTION: a. The formula h = -16t2 + h 0 can be used to approximate the number of seconds t it takes for the rock to reach
height h from an initial height of h 0 in feet.
2
For the first rock, the initial height is 300 feet. Therefore, the function for the first rock is h = −16t + 300.
For the second rock, the initial height is 700. Therefore, the function for the second rock is h = −16t2 + 700.
b. In order to figure out how long it takes each rock to reach the ground, set the height equal to 0 for both equations.
It takes the first rock about 4.3 seconds to reach the ground.
It takes the second rock about 6.6 seconds to reach the ground.
Since 6.6 - 4.3 = 2.3, the first rock will reach the ground about 2.3 seconds sooner than the second rock.

SOLUTION: 2
All three of the quadratic functions are of the form f (x) = ax + c. Use a graphing calculator to compare the graphs
of the three functions.
a. The value of a in the function for Sprinkler C is the smallest of the three. Therefore, the parabola for Sprinkler C
is the most compressed vertically, so it will send water the farthest.
b. The value of c in the function for Sprinkler A is the largest of the three. Therefore, the parabola for Sprinkler A is
translated up the most, so it will send water the highest.
c. The value of a in the function for Sprinkler A is the largest of the three. Therefore, the parabola for Sprinkler A is
the most stretched vertically, so it will expand the least, and therefore have the narrowest path.

b. A second golfer hits a ball from the red tee, which is 30 yards closer to the hole. What function h(x) can be used

SOLUTION: a. For g(x) = 0.0005(x – 200)2 + 20, a = –0.0005, h = 200, and k = 20. Since |–0.0005| < 1 and –0.0005 < 0, there is
a reflection across the x-axis and the graph will be compressed vertically (or be wider). Since h = 200 and 200 > 0,
there is a translation 200 yards to the right. Since k = 20 and 20 > 0, there is a translation up 20 yards.Thus, the
graph of g(x) is the graph of f (x) translated 200 yards right, compressed vertically, reflected in the x-axis, and

b. A second golfer hits a ball from the red tee, which is 30 yards closer to the hole. What function h(x) can be used

SOLUTION: a. For g(x) = 0.0005(x – 200)2 + 20, a = –0.0005, h = 200, and k = 20. Since |–0.0005| < 1 and –0.0005 < 0, there is
a reflection across the x-axis and the graph will be compressed vertically (or be wider). Since h = 200 and 200 > 0,
there is a translation 200 yards to the right. Since k = 20 and 20 > 0, there is a translation up 20 yards.Thus, the
graph of g(x) is the graph of f (x) translated 200 yards right, compressed vertically, reflected in the x-axis, and
translated up 20 yards.
b. If the red tee is 30 yards closer to the hole, then g(x) will be translated 30 yards to the right to obtain h(x). So, for
h(x) h = 200 + 30 or 230.

a. The generator will run out of fuel when g(t) = 0.Solving we get:
Since time cannot be negative, t = 20 h.
So, the engine will run out of fuel after 20 hours.
b. If the engine refuels 40 gallons every hour, then the linear function describing this would be h(t) = 40t. c. Find the sum of the two functions.
This new function T(t) represents the amount of fuel in the tank while the engine is operating and refueling.
d. The generator will now run out of fuel when T(t) = 0.
Use the quadratic formula to determine the solution for t.
The time must be positive, so t ≈ 53.72.
Therefore, the generator will run out of fuel after about 53.72 hours or 53 hours 43 minutes.

36. REASONING Are the following statements sometimes, always, or never true? Explain.
2
a. The graph of y = x + k has its vertex at the origin.
b. The graphs of y = ax2 and its reflection over the x-axis are the same width.
2
c. The graph of y = x + k, where k ≥ 0, and the graph of a quadratic with vertex at (0, –3) have the same maximum
or minimum point.
SOLUTION: a. The vertex for y = x2 + k is (0, k). This will equal (0, 0) only when k = 0. For any other value, the graph will be
translated up or down. 2
Therefore, the graph of y = x + k will sometimes have its vertex at the origin.
b. The reflection of y = ax2 over the x-axis will have the equation y = –ax2. Since |a| = |–a|, both graphs are dilated
2
by a factor of a and will have the same width. Therefore, the graph of y = ax and its reflection over the x-axis will
always have the same width.
c. The vertex of the graph of y = x2 + k, if k ≥ 0 is (0, k) and it will be a minimum point since the graph will open up.
A quadratic with a vertex of (0, –3) will have a minimum point at (0, –3) if the graph opens up and a maximum point
2
at (0, –3) if the graph opens down. Since k ≥ 0, the points cannot be the same. Therefore, the graph of y = x + k
and the graph of a quadratic with a vertex at (0, –3) will never have the same maximum or minimum point.
2
37. CHALLENGE Write a function of the form y = ax + c with a graph that passes through the points (−2, 3) and (4,
15).
SOLUTION: 2
Substitute the points into the function y = ax + c.
Next set both equations equal to each other to solve for a.
2
The value of a = 1, so the value of c is 15 – 16(1) or –1. Therefore, the function is f (x) = x − 1.
38. CCSS ARGUMENTS Determine whether all quadratic functions that are reflected across the y-axis produce the
same graph. Explain your answer.
SOLUTION: Sample answer: Not all reflections over the y-axis produce the same graph. If the vertex of the original graph is not
on the y-axis, the graph will not have the y-axis as its axis of symmetry and its reflection across the y-axis will be a

2
The value of a = 1, so the value of c is 15 – 16(1) or –1. Therefore, the function is f (x) = x − 1.
38. CCSS ARGUMENTS Determine whether all quadratic functions that are reflected across the y-axis produce the

SOLUTION: Sample answer: Not all reflections over the y-axis produce the same graph. If the vertex of the original graph is not
on the y-axis, the graph will not have the y-axis as its axis of symmetry and its reflection across the y-axis will be a
different parabola.
39. OPEN ENDED Write a quadratic function that opens downward and is wider than the parent graph.
SOLUTION: 2
If the parent graph is f (x) = ax , then it opens upward. In order to open downward, the value of a must be negative.
2
So, f (x) = – x is a quadratic function that opens downward.
In order to be wider than the parent graph, the value of |a| must be between 0 and 1.. Therefore, if a =
, the
graph will be wider.
So, f (x) =
is an example of a quadratic function that opens downward and is wider than the parent graph.
40. WRITING IN MATH Describe how the values of a and k affect the graphical and tabular representations for the
2

2
functions y = ax , y = x + k, and y = ax + k.
SOLUTION: 2
For y = ax , the a stretches the parent graph vertically if |a| > 1 or compresses the parent graph if 0 < |a| < 1. When
a is negative, the graph is reflected over the x-axis. The y-values in the table will all be multiplied by a factor of a. 2
For y = x + k, the parent graph is translated up if k is positive and down if k is negative. The y-values in the table
will all have the constant k added to them or subtracted from them. 2
For y = ax + k, the graph will either be stretched vertically or compressed vertically based upon the value of a and
then will be translated up or down depending on the value of k. When a is negative, the graph is reflected over the xaxis. The y-values in the table will be multiplied by a factor of a and the constant k added to them.

41. SHORT RESPONSE A tutor charges a flat fee of $55 and $30 for each hour of work. Write a function that
represents the total charge C, in terms of the number of hours h worked.
SOLUTION: Let h = the numbers of hours worked. Then the total charge is the flat fee, $55, plus $30 per hour for each hour
worked, or 30h. So C = 55 + 30h.

A a line with a y-intercept of (0, 2) and an x-intercept at the origin
B a parabola with a minimum point at (0, 0) and that is wider than the graph of y = x2 2
C a parabola with a maximum point at (0, 0) and that is narrower than the graph of y = x D a parabola with a minimum point at (0, 0) and that is narrower than the graph of y = x2 SOLUTION: 2
An equation in the form y = ax is a quadratic equation whose graph is a parabola. So, choice A cannot be correct as
a line would have a linear equation in the form y = mx + b.
2
For y = 2x , a = 2. Since the value of a > 0, this parabola opens up and thus has a minimum at (0, 0). Therefore,
choice C can be eliminated.
2
Since a = 2, this function is a dilation of the graph of y = x that is stretched vertically. A parabola that is stretched
vertically will become narrower. So, the correct choice is D.
