Vertical shift c units upward: h(x)=f(x)+c Vertical shift c units downward: h(x)=f(x)-c Horizontal shift c units to the right: h(x)=f(x-c) Horizontal shift c units to the left: h(x)=f(x+c) = x = x + = x + Practice: 1. = x ( x) = x f = ( x ) + 1. = x = ( x + 4) = x. = x = x + 4 = x + 4

Piecewise functions: Graphing and Evaluating Piecewise functions are composed of two or more functions. Given the function: x +, x 1 = To the left of x = 1, the graph is the line y = x +. x + 4, x > 1 To the right of x = 1, the graph is the line y = x + 4 Evaluate: f ( ) = ( ) + = f ( ) = + 4 = f ( ) = ( ) + = 1 f ( ) = + 4 = 1 f ( 1) = ( 1) + = 1 f ( 4) = 4 + 4 = 0 f ( 0) = (0) + = f ( 5) = 5 + 4 = 1 f ( 1) = (1) + = 5 Use the first piece Use the second piece To graph, use the points from above x y x y - - y 5 - -1 1 4-1 1 4 0 0 5 1 1 5 1 **Open Dot** 1 x - - -1 1 4 5 6-1 - - ** You must evaluate the break point in each piece! One point will be a closed dot and the other will be an open dot, Evaluate and graph. 1. x +, x < 0 = x y. 5 x, x 0 x + 1, x 1 = x y x +, x > 1 5

Domain and Range Given a function y = f(x), the Domain of the function is the set of permissible inputs (x-values) and the Range is the set of resulting outputs (y-values). Domains can be found algebraically; ranges are often found graphically. Domains and Ranges are sets. Therefore, you must use proper set notation. When finding the domain of a function, ask yourself what values can't be used. Your domain is everything else. There are simple basic rules to consider: * The domain of all polynomial functions is the set of real numbers. * Square root functions cannot contain a negative underneath the radical. Set the expression under the radical greater than or equal to zero and solve for the variable. This will be your domain. * Rational functions can not have zeros in the denominator. Determine which values of the input cause the denominator to equal zero, and set your domain to be everything else. Examples: Find the domain of the function algebraically. 1. 4 = Domain: x. x = = Domain: x 0, 4 x 4x x( x 4). x x = = Domain: x, x 9 ( x + )( x ) 4. = x 9 Domain: x 9 5. = 4 x Domain: x 4 6. = x 1 Set Radicand equal to zero and solve. x 1 = 0 ( x + 1)( x 1) = 0 x = 1 & x = 1 Now use a number line and decide where values will be positive + - + -1 1 Domain: x 1 & x 1 ** A number line can be used for all square root equations by testing a number in each region.** 6

For range values, take the y-values from bottom to top. 1. Domain: 5 < x Domain: 4 < x 1 Domain: 6 < x < 6 Range: 4 < y 6 Range: y < 5 Range: < y < 5 Practice: Identify the domain for each function. 1. x =. x + x 1 g ( x) =. h ( x) = x 4 x + 4. = x + x 4 5. g( x) = 5 x 6. h( x) = 1+ x 7. = 8. g ( x) = x + 9x + 0 9. x x 6 x h ( x) = x 4 Practice: Identify the domain and range for each function. 10. 11. 5 1. y 5 4 4 1 1 x - - -1 1-5 -4 - - -1 1 4 5-1 -1 - - -4-5 7
