Text Box: Note that the mapping form tells you exactly what happens to each point on the graph of your function f(x).  In the above example, multiply the x-value by -2 and subtract 1; then multiply the y-value by 2 and subtract 2.

Text Box: In summary, to graph y = af [k(x – m)] + n from the graph of y = f(x), follow these ideas:

·	If a < 0, we have a reflection in the x-axis
·	If k < 0, we have a reflection in the y-axis
·	If –1 < a < 1, we have a vertical compression
·	If a > 1 or a < - 1, we have a vertical stretch
·	If –1 < k < 1, we have a horizontal stretch, factor 1/k
·	If k > 1 or k < - 1, we have a horizontal compression, factor 1/k
·	The value of m gives the horizontal translation (shift)
·	The value of n gives the vertical translation (shift)
