TopicFunction Transformations
TypeForward transformation (single point, multiple transformations)
DifficultyModerate -0.8 This is a straightforward application of standard function transformations (vertical stretch and horizontal stretch) taught in C2. Students need only recall that y = kf(x) affects y-coordinates by factor k, and y = f(kx) affects x-coordinates by factor 1/k. No problem-solving or multi-step reasoning required—pure procedural recall on a routine topic.
Spec1.02w Graph transformations: simple transformations of f(x)

The point R\((6, -3)\) is on the curve \(y = f(x)\).
  1. Find the coordinates of the image of R when the curve is transformed to \(y = \frac{1}{2}f(x)\). [2]
  2. Find the coordinates of the image of R when the curve is transformed to \(y = f(3x)\). [2]

The point R$(6, -3)$ is on the curve $y = f(x)$.
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\item Find the coordinates of the image of R when the curve is transformed to $y = \frac{1}{2}f(x)$. [2]
\item Find the coordinates of the image of R when the curve is transformed to $y = f(3x)$. [2]
\end{enumerate}
