Question1. Identify the parent function. Then describe the transformations that produce the graph of $f$. a. $f(x)=|x+9|$ b. $f(x)=5 x^{3}-8$

Studdy Solution
a. Parent function: $f(x) = |x|$.
Transformation: Horizontal shift **9 units to the left**. b. Parent function: $f(x) = x^3$.
Transformations: Vertical stretch by a **factor of 5**, followed by a vertical shift **8 units down**.
