So here we have the function g of x equals negative sign of 2x minus pi.
00:06
And what we want to do is determine its amplitude, period, and phase shift, and then graph one period of the function.
00:14
We're going to show our steps using our most basic graph and then all the transformations from there.
00:20
So the most basic graph in comparison to this one, its parent function, is g of that, i'll call it something different.
00:29
We'll say f of x equals sign of x.
00:34
Nothing fancy.
00:36
So f of x equals sign of x.
00:46
There you go.
00:47
Has an amplitude of one.
00:53
It has a period of 2 pi.
01:03
And there is no phase shift here.
01:05
So what that graph looks like is right here.
01:14
Again, that is a graph of an amplitude of one.
01:18
So from this midline, it goes up one and down one.
01:22
And the period is 2 pi.
01:23
So the length is from 0 to 2 pi.
01:27
And obviously, no phase shift has happened.
01:29
We haven't shifted left to right at all.
01:31
So what we want to take into account here is how g of x is different from f of x.
01:37
It is different first in that there is a negative out in front.
01:42
So when we determine our amplitude, that actually doesn't change anything, it's always the absolute value of a.
01:48
So our a value here being negative 1 still gives us an amplitude of 1.
01:55
So the height of this function is not going to change.
01:58
However, since it is a reflection, what will happen is each of these points will get reflected over the x -axis.
02:04
This first one being on the x -axis means that it is going to stay in the same exact spot...
