1. ## Determining the equation

I've been trying to do this question for the past like 30 minutes and I don't get it. I can do 3a, but not the others, can anyone help me with 3b,c or d?

How did you come to the (right) answer for 3a? If you know how to do 3a then the others are similar.

3. ## Re: Determining the equation

I just looked at the origin of the normal graph, 0,0 and saw the different in the new graph, the origin of the transformed graph was (-3,-4) So I got the equation y=(X+3)^3 -4, don't know how to do the others though :/

First one is correct! Now do the same for the second one with the tranformations, take the graph of $y=x^4$ and look which transformations have been achieved.

A move up or down is a change in "y"- that is, it will be added or subtracted after applying function f to get the initial value of y. But a move left or right will be a change in x. Think of it as f(x- a) and choose a so that, in the second one, for example, f(1- a)= f(0).
