x^2\) is the same as the graph of \(y = x^2\). Writing equations as functions in the form \(f(x)\) is useful when applying translations and reflections to graphs. If \(f(x) = x^2\), then \(f(x ...

exponential and circle graphs. Their equations can be used to plot their shape. Transformation of curves - Higher - OCR Functions of graphs can be transformed to show shifts and reflections.
