5) How does this form: 𝑦 = 𝑎(𝑥 − ℎ)3 + 𝑘 relate to previous functions we graphed (absolute value
and quadratics)? Be specific.
Directions: Roughly sketch the curve by shifting the graph of f (x ) . Use the identified “anchor points”.

6) y = f ( x − 2) 7) y = f ( x + 1)
f (x )

8) y = f ( x − 2) +1 9) y = f (− x) 10) y = f (x)

11) Solve the polynomial: 4𝑥 3 + 28𝑥 2 + 21𝑥 − 18 = 0

a) List the possible rational roots.

b) Use the partial graph to the right to choose a root from part a)
to help you factor the polynomial, then solve it.

12) Write the equation of the transformed function in the graph →
