Transformations of sine and cosine curves and equations

Interactive practice questions

The graph of $f\left(x\right)$f(x) and $g\left(x\right)=f\left(x-k\right)-j$g(x)=f(xk)j are displayed on the same set of axes in grey and black respectively.

Loading Graph...
A Cartesian coordinate system with the x-axis ranging from 0 to $420$420 degrees in major intervals of 120, and minor intervals of $60$60 and the y-axis labeled from 1 to $-4$4 in intervals of $0.5$0.5. Two functions are plotted: the function $f\left(x\right)$f(x) in gray, and $g\left(x\right)=f\left(x-k\right)-j$g(x)=f(xk)j in black. The two curves appear to be identical periodic oscillations. The black curve is located below the gray curve. The peaks of the black curve is located units below and to the right of where the peaks occur on the gray curve.
