TopicFunction Transformations
TypeStationary points after transformation
DifficultyModerate -0.8 This is a straightforward application of function transformations to stationary points. Students only need to recall that vertical stretches multiply y-coordinates and horizontal stretches divide x-coordinates, requiring no calculus or problem-solving—just direct application of transformation rules to given coordinates.
Spec1.02w Graph transformations: simple transformations of f(x)

10 The curve \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x )\) has a minimum point at \(( 3,5 )\).
State the coordinates of the corresponding minimum point on the graph of
  1. \(y = 3 \mathrm { f } ( x )\),
  2. \(y = \mathrm { f } ( 2 x )\).

Question 10:
AnswerMarks Guidance
(i) \((3, 15)\)B2 B1 for each coordinate
(ii) \((1.5, 5)\)B2 B1 for each coordinate
Question 10:

(i) $(3, 15)$ | B2 | B1 for each coordinate | s.c. B0 for $(3, 5)$

(ii) $(1.5, 5)$ | B2 | B1 for each coordinate | s.c. B0 for $(3, 5)$
10 The curve $y = \mathrm { f } ( x )$ has a minimum point at $( 3,5 )$.\\
State the coordinates of the corresponding minimum point on the graph of\\
(i) $y = 3 \mathrm { f } ( x )$,\\
(ii) $y = \mathrm { f } ( 2 x )$.
