In this unit we study how certain transformations of a function affect its graph. This will give us a better understanding of how to graph functions. The transformations that we study are shifting, reflecting, and stretching. We will also study functions when they are in rational form. This means we will examine different features of the rational graph, including vertical, horizontal and slant asymptotes, as well as holes and intercepts.
