Function Transformations and Composition函数变换与复合
Once you know one function, you almost know infinitely many: shifting, stretching, reflecting, composing, and inverting let you build a whole family from a single parent. This guide treats the parent graph as a stencil and asks one question seven times in a row: what does this algebraic change do to the picture? The general form $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$ is the destination , vertical and horizontal shifts give you $h$ and $k$, stretches and reflections give you $a$ and $b$, composition lets you stack two stencils into one, and inversion lets you read the stencil backwards. Even and odd functions enter as the symmetry case: their graphs are invariant under one of the reflections we just defined.认识了一个函数,几乎就认识了无穷多个:通过平移(shift)、伸缩(stretch)、反射(reflection)、复合(composition)与求反(inverse),一族函数从同一个母函数(parent function)派生而来。本指南把母函数图像当作模版(stencil),用七节内容反复回答同一个问题:对代数表达式做这样的改动,图像会发生什么?目标是一般形式 $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$, 水平 / 竖直平移给出 $h$ 与 $k$,伸缩与反射给出 $a$ 与 $b$;复合让你把两个模版叠成一个;反函数让你倒读这同一个模版。奇函数与偶函数(even / odd)作为对称情形登场:它们的图像在我们前面定义的某种反射下保持不变。
How to use this guide如何使用本指南
Three of the four curricula treat transformations as a Grade 11-12 topic and put it inside a dedicated Relations and Functions strand. US Common Core spreads the same content across HSF-BF.A (build) and HSF-BF.B.3 (effect on the graph), with HSF-BF.B.4 on inverses and the (+) marker reserved for composition. Alberta and Ontario both expect the master form $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$ explicitly; BC PC 12 names the same four moves verbatim ("translations, stretches, and reflections") plus inverses. The seven-row table tells you which of §1-§7 are core and which are extension on your syllabus.四套大纲中的三套把"函数变换"列为 11-12 年级主题,并置于专门的关系与函数单元下。美国共同核心把同样内容分布在 HSF-BF.A(构造)与 HSF-BF.B.3(图像影响);反函数在 HSF-BF.B.4,"复合"标 (+)。阿尔伯塔与安大略都明确要求主形式 $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$;BC PC 12 原文写出同样的四种动作("平移、伸缩、反射")外加反函数。下面的七行表告诉你在你所在大纲中 §1-§7 各节属"核心"还是"拓展"。

Once you have located your row, use the two cards below for the speed at which you should work through the recommended sections.找到所在行后,用下面两张卡片决定推进速度。
Memorise five pictures. (1) $y = f(x) + k$ shifts up by $k$. (2) $y = f(x - h)$ shifts right by $h$ , sign convention! (3) $y = a f(x)$ stretches vertically by $|a|$; $y = f(b x)$ compresses horizontally by $|b|$. (4) $y = -f(x)$ flips over the $x$-axis; $y = f(-x)$ flips over the $y$-axis. (5) The inverse $f^{-1}$ is the reflection of $f$ over the line $y = x$. For composition, $(f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))$ , inside out. Read the cram-cheat box in every section, skip the going-deeper proofs.背熟五张图。(1) $y = f(x) + k$ 向上平移 $k$。(2) $y = f(x - h)$ 向右平移 $h$, 注意符号约定!(3) $y = a f(x)$ 竖直伸缩因子 $|a|$;$y = f(b x)$ 水平压缩因子 $|b|$。(4) $y = -f(x)$ 关于 $x$ 轴翻转;$y = f(-x)$ 关于 $y$ 轴翻转。(5) 反函数 $f^{-1}$ 是 $f$ 关于直线 $y = x$ 的反射。复合:$(f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))$, 由内向外。每节速记框必读,深入证明可跳。
Practise reading the master form $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$ in either direction: given the four parameters, sketch the new graph from the parent; given the sketched new graph, extract the four parameters. Always factor the $b$ out of the argument before reading $h$ , that is the single most common slip. For composition, write out $f \circ g$ and $g \circ f$ side by side at least once on every problem to feel the non-commutativity. For inverses, never write $f^{-1}$ until you have checked the one-to-one condition (horizontal line test). AB Math 30-1 indicator 6.5 explicitly asks you to restrict the domain to force this.练习双向读取主形式 $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$:给定四参数能由母函数画新图,给定新图能反推四参数。读 $h$ 之前必须把 $b$ 从括号里因式提出, 这是最常见的单一错误。复合题在每题里都把 $f \circ g$ 与 $g \circ f$ 并排写一次,亲手感受不交换性。反函数题在确认一一对应(水平线测试)之前不要落笔 $f^{-1}$;AB Math 30-1 指标 6.5 明确要求通过限制定义域来强制此条件。
Vertical and Horizontal Shifts竖直平移与水平平移
Let $f$ be the parent function and let $h, k$ be real constants.设 $f$ 为母函数,$h, k$ 为实常数。
$$ y = f(x) + k \;\;\;\Longleftrightarrow\;\;\; \text{vertical shift by } k. \qquad y = f(x - h) \;\;\;\Longleftrightarrow\;\;\; \text{horizontal shift by } h. $$- Outside vs. inside.外加 vs. 内加。 A constant added outside the function moves the graph up (positive $k$) or down (negative $k$). A constant subtracted inside the function moves the graph right (positive $h$) or left (negative $h$).在函数外加常数:上移($k > 0$)或下移($k < 0$)。在函数内减常数:右移($h > 0$)或左移($h < 0$)。
- Sign convention warning.符号约定警示。 $y = f(x + 3)$ shifts the graph left by $3$, not right. Read $(x + 3)$ as $(x - (-3))$ so $h = -3$. Every textbook gets caught here.$y = f(x + 3)$ 把图像向左平移 $3$,不是向右。把 $(x + 3)$ 读作 $(x - (-3))$,则 $h = -3$。教材在此处反复栽跟头。
- Together.同时使用。 $$ y = f(x - h) + k \;\;\;\Longleftrightarrow\;\;\; \text{shift right by } h \text{ and up by } k. $$ Alberta Math 30-1 indicator 2.3 names this combined form $y - k = f(x - h)$.阿尔伯塔 Math 30-1 指标 2.3 把此联合形式记作 $y - k = f(x - h)$。
- Why shifts behave oppositely inside.为何内加效果反向。 If $y = f(x - 3)$, then $y$ at $x = 5$ equals $f(2)$ , the new graph at $x = 5$ shows what the parent did at $x = 2$. The graph has moved right by $3$.若 $y = f(x - 3)$,则在 $x = 5$ 处 $y = f(2)$, 新图在 $x = 5$ 显示母函数在 $x = 2$ 的值。图像因此右移 $3$。
Start with the parent $f(x) = x^{2}$ (a parabola with vertex at the origin). Describe the transformation that produces $y = (x - 4)^{2} + 3$ and state the new vertex.从母函数 $f(x) = x^{2}$ 出发(顶点在原点的抛物线)。描述把它变成 $y = (x - 4)^{2} + 3$ 的变换,并写出新顶点。
Identify $h$ and $k$.辨识 $h$ 与 $k$。 Match $(x - h) = (x - 4)$ to read $h = 4$; the outside constant gives $k = 3$.把 $(x - h)$ 与 $(x - 4)$ 对照得 $h = 4$;外部常数给出 $k = 3$。
Apply the shift in two stages.分两步执行平移。 First, shift the parabola right by $4$: vertex moves $(0, 0) \to (4, 0)$. Then shift up by $3$: vertex moves $(4, 0) \to (4, 3)$.先把抛物线右移 $4$:顶点从 $(0, 0)$ 到 $(4, 0)$。再上移 $3$:顶点从 $(4, 0)$ 到 $(4, 3)$。
Sanity-check with a point.用一点核验。 Parent at $x = 2$ gives $f(2) = 4$. New function at $x = 6$ gives $(6 - 4)^{2} + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7$ , same shape, lifted by $3$.母函数在 $x = 2$ 给 $f(2) = 4$。新函数在 $x = 6$ 给 $(6 - 4)^{2} + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7$, 同形,整体抬高 $3$。
Answer.作答。 Shift right by $4$ and up by $3$. New vertex at $(4, 3)$.右移 $4$、上移 $3$。新顶点 $(4, 3)$。
Vertical and Horizontal Stretches / Compressions竖直与水平伸缩
Let $a, b$ be nonzero real constants.设 $a, b$ 为非零实常数。
$$ y = a f(x) \;\;\;\Longleftrightarrow\;\;\; \text{vertical stretch by factor } |a|. \qquad y = f(b x) \;\;\;\Longleftrightarrow\;\;\; \text{horizontal stretch by factor } \tfrac{1}{|b|}. $$- Vertical ($a$): direct.竖直 ($a$):直接。 $|a| > 1$ stretches the graph vertically (taller); $0 < |a| < 1$ compresses it vertically (shorter). The $x$-intercepts stay put.$|a| > 1$ 竖直拉长(更高);$0 < |a| < 1$ 竖直压扁(更矮)。$x$ 轴上的交点位置不变。
- Horizontal ($b$): reciprocal.水平 ($b$):取倒数。 $|b| > 1$ compresses the graph horizontally by factor $1/|b|$ (narrower); $0 < |b| < 1$ stretches it horizontally (wider).$|b| > 1$ 水平方向压缩(更窄),因子 $1/|b|$;$0 < |b| < 1$ 水平方向拉伸(更宽)。
- Why $b$ inside reverses intuition.为何 $b$ 在内部时与直觉相反。 $y = f(2x)$ at $x = 3$ equals $f(6)$. Inputs that used to be at $x = 6$ now happen at $x = 3$, so the graph has compressed by a factor of $1/2$.$y = f(2x)$ 在 $x = 3$ 处等于 $f(6)$。原先在 $x = 6$ 的输入现在出现在 $x = 3$,故水平压缩因子 $1/2$。
- AB Math 30-1 indicators 3.1 / 3.2AB Math 30-1 指标 3.1 / 3.2 treat $a$ and $b$ separately so students can attribute changes to one parameter at a time.把 $a$ 与 $b$ 分开处理,便于学生将变化归因于单一参数。
Compare the graphs of $y = 4 x^{2}$ and $y = (2 x)^{2}$. Which one is a vertical stretch and which is a horizontal compression? Show that the two graphs end up identical and explain why.对比 $y = 4 x^{2}$ 与 $y = (2 x)^{2}$。哪一个是竖直拉伸,哪一个是水平压缩?证明两图相同,并说明原因。
Read off the transformations.读取变换。 $y = 4 x^{2}$ is $a f(x)$ with $a = 4$ , vertical stretch by factor $4$. $y = (2 x)^{2}$ is $f(b x)$ with $b = 2$ , horizontal compression by factor $1/2$.$y = 4 x^{2}$ 即 $a f(x)$,$a = 4$, 竖直拉伸因子 $4$。$y = (2 x)^{2}$ 即 $f(b x)$,$b = 2$, 水平压缩因子 $1/2$。
Expand both.展开两式。 $(2 x)^{2} = 4 x^{2}$. So algebraically the two expressions are identical, and the two graphs coincide.$(2 x)^{2} = 4 x^{2}$。代数上两式相同,两图重合。
Caution.提醒。 For a non-power function such as $f(x) = \sin x$, vertical and horizontal stretches do not coincide: $4 \sin x \neq \sin(2 x)$. The coincidence is special to power functions.对非幂函数(如 $f(x) = \sin x$),竖直与水平伸缩不重合:$4 \sin x \neq \sin(2 x)$。该巧合只对幂函数成立。
Reflections Over the $x$-Axis and $y$-Axis关于 $x$ 轴与 $y$ 轴的反射
- $x$-axis flip.关于 $x$ 轴翻转。 $y = -f(x)$ sends each point $(x, y)$ on the parent to $(x, -y)$. Points on the $x$-axis are fixed.$y = -f(x)$ 把母函数上的 $(x, y)$ 映到 $(x, -y)$。$x$ 轴上的点保持不动。
- $y$-axis flip.关于 $y$ 轴翻转。 $y = f(-x)$ sends each point $(x, y)$ on the parent to $(-x, y)$. Points on the $y$-axis are fixed.$y = f(-x)$ 把母函数上的 $(x, y)$ 映到 $(-x, y)$。$y$ 轴上的点保持不动。
- Both at once.同时翻转。 $y = -f(-x)$ is reflection through the origin (a $180^{\circ}$ rotation). Every point $(x, y)$ goes to $(-x, -y)$.$y = -f(-x)$ 是关于原点的反射(绕原点旋转 $180^{\circ}$)。每点 $(x, y)$ 映到 $(-x, -y)$。
- Sign of $a$ and $b$ at once.$a$ 与 $b$ 的符号即反射。 In the master form $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$, $a < 0$ adds an $x$-axis reflection and $b < 0$ adds a $y$-axis reflection.在主形式 $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$ 中,$a < 0$ 附加 $x$ 轴反射,$b < 0$ 附加 $y$ 轴反射。
- AB Math 30-1 indicator 5.1AB Math 30-1 指标 5.1 spells out the coordinate rules: $x$-axis $(x, y) \to (x, -y)$, $y$-axis $(x, y) \to (-x, y)$, $y = x$ line $(x, y) \to (y, x)$ (this last one returns in §7).明确写出坐标规则:$x$ 轴 $(x, y) \to (x, -y)$;$y$ 轴 $(x, y) \to (-x, y)$;$y = x$ 直线 $(x, y) \to (y, x)$(最后一条 §7 再用)。
The graph of $f(x)$ passes through the three points $(-1, 4)$, $(2, -3)$, and $(5, 1)$. Where do these points go on the graphs of (a) $y = -f(x)$ and (b) $y = f(-x)$?函数 $f(x)$ 的图像经过三点 $(-1, 4)$、$(2, -3)$、$(5, 1)$。在以下两图上,对应点分别是?(a) $y = -f(x)$;(b) $y = f(-x)$。
(a) $x$-axis reflection.(a) 关于 $x$ 轴反射。 $(x, y) \to (x, -y)$. So $(-1, 4) \to (-1, -4)$, $(2, -3) \to (2, 3)$, $(5, 1) \to (5, -1)$.$(x, y) \to (x, -y)$。故 $(-1, 4) \to (-1, -4)$;$(2, -3) \to (2, 3)$;$(5, 1) \to (5, -1)$。
(b) $y$-axis reflection.(b) 关于 $y$ 轴反射。 $(x, y) \to (-x, y)$. So $(-1, 4) \to (1, 4)$, $(2, -3) \to (-2, -3)$, $(5, 1) \to (-5, 1)$.$(x, y) \to (-x, y)$。故 $(-1, 4) \to (1, 4)$;$(2, -3) \to (-2, -3)$;$(5, 1) \to (-5, 1)$。
Sanity-check via definitions.用定义核验。 For (a), $-f(-1) = -4$ , yes, $(-1, -4)$ lies on $-f$. For (b), at $x = 1$, $f(-1) = 4$, so the new function takes value $4$ at $x = 1$.(a):$-f(-1) = -4$, 确认 $(-1, -4)$ 在 $-f$ 上。(b):在 $x = 1$ 处 $f(-1) = 4$,新函数取值为 $4$。
Combined Transformations: The Master Form $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$复合变换:主形式 $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$
- Four roles.四个角色。 $a$: vertical stretch (and $x$-axis reflection if $a < 0$). $b$: horizontal stretch by $1/|b|$ (and $y$-axis reflection if $b < 0$). $h$: horizontal shift right by $h$. $k$: vertical shift up by $k$.$a$:竖直伸缩($a < 0$ 时附加 $x$ 轴反射);$b$:水平伸缩因子 $1/|b|$($b < 0$ 时附加 $y$ 轴反射);$h$:水平右移 $h$;$k$:竖直上移 $k$。
- Factor $b$ out first.先把 $b$ 因式提出。 Always write the inside as $b(x - h)$, not $bx - bh$. If you see $f(2x - 6)$, rewrite as $f(2(x - 3))$ so $b = 2$ and $h = 3$. Without the factoring step you will read $h = 6$ and lose the marks.内部务必写成 $b(x - h)$,而不是 $bx - bh$。若见 $f(2x - 6)$,先改写为 $f(2(x - 3))$,于是 $b = 2$、$h = 3$。不提因式会误读 $h = 6$ 并丢分。
- Order of operations.操作顺序。 Apply stretches and reflections (the $a$ and $b$ moves) before the shifts (the $h$ and $k$ moves). Coordinate-wise: $(x, y) \to \big(\tfrac{x}{b} + h, \; a y + k\big)$.先做伸缩与反射($a, b$),后做平移($h, k$)。坐标层面:$(x, y) \to \big(\tfrac{x}{b} + h, \; a y + k\big)$。
- AB Math 30-1 indicator 4.1AB Math 30-1 指标 4.1 writes the master form as $y - k = a f(b(x - h))$ and asks students to "sketch the graph … for given values of $a, b, h, k$" given only an unlabelled parent graph. Ontario MCR3U A1.8 is verbatim equivalent: "$y = a f(k(x - d)) + c$" (different letter names, same idea).把主形式写作 $y - k = a f(b(x - h))$,要求学生在仅给出无标注母函数图像的情况下"按给定 $a, b, h, k$ 作图"。安大略 MCR3U A1.8 形式相同(字母不同):"$y = a f(k(x - d)) + c$"。
Sketch $y = -2 \sqrt{3(x - 1)} + 5$ from the parent $f(x) = \sqrt{x}$. Identify each of the four moves, give the new image of the parent point $(4, 2)$, and state the new starting point of the curve.从母函数 $f(x) = \sqrt{x}$ 描绘 $y = -2 \sqrt{3(x - 1)} + 5$。逐一列出四个变换;给出母函数上 $(4, 2)$ 的新像;写出曲线的新起点。
Read the parameters.读取参数。 $a = -2$, $b = 3$, $h = 1$, $k = 5$.$a = -2$,$b = 3$,$h = 1$,$k = 5$。
Translate each parameter to a move.把每个参数翻译成变换。 $|a| = 2$: vertical stretch by $2$. $a < 0$: reflect over $x$-axis. $|b| = 3$: horizontal compression by $1/3$. $h = 1$: shift right by $1$. $k = 5$: shift up by $5$.$|a| = 2$:竖直拉伸 $2$ 倍;$a < 0$:关于 $x$ 轴反射;$|b| = 3$:水平压缩 $1/3$;$h = 1$:右移 $1$;$k = 5$:上移 $5$。
Apply to the point $(4, 2)$.作用于点 $(4, 2)$。 Coordinate map: $(x, y) \to (\tfrac{x}{b} + h, \; a y + k) = (\tfrac{4}{3} + 1, \; -2 \cdot 2 + 5) = (\tfrac{7}{3}, \; 1)$.坐标映射:$(x, y) \to (\tfrac{x}{b} + h, \; a y + k) = (\tfrac{4}{3} + 1, \; -2 \cdot 2 + 5) = (\tfrac{7}{3}, \; 1)$。
Find the new starting point.求新起点。 Parent $\sqrt{x}$ starts at $(0, 0)$. Plug into the map: $(\tfrac{0}{3} + 1, \; -2 \cdot 0 + 5) = (1, 5)$. The curve now starts at $(1, 5)$ and opens downward (because $a < 0$) and to the right (because $b > 0$, so the domain $x \ge 1$).母函数 $\sqrt{x}$ 从 $(0, 0)$ 起。代入映射:$(\tfrac{0}{3} + 1, \; -2 \cdot 0 + 5) = (1, 5)$。曲线从 $(1, 5)$ 起,向下($a < 0$)且向右($b > 0$,定义域 $x \ge 1$)。
Direct check.直接验证。 At $x = 1$: $y = -2 \sqrt{0} + 5 = 5$. ✓ At $x = 4/3 + 1 = 7/3$: $y = -2 \sqrt{3 \cdot 4/3} + 5 = -2 \cdot 2 + 5 = 1$. ✓在 $x = 1$:$y = -2 \sqrt{0} + 5 = 5$。✓ 在 $x = 7/3$:$y = -2 \sqrt{3 \cdot 4/3} + 5 = -2 \cdot 2 + 5 = 1$。✓
Even, Odd, and Neither Functions偶函数、奇函数与皆非的函数
A function $f$ is even if for every $x$ in the domain,函数 $f$ 称为偶函数,若对定义域中每个 $x$,
$$ f(-x) = f(x) \qquad (\text{graph is symmetric about the } y\text{-axis}). $$A function $f$ is odd if$f$ 称为奇函数,若
$$ f(-x) = -f(x) \qquad (\text{graph is symmetric about the origin}). $$- Read in transformation language.用变换语言重读。 Even: $y$-axis reflection (§3) leaves the graph unchanged. Odd: composing $x$-axis and $y$-axis reflections (i.e. origin reflection) leaves the graph unchanged.偶函数:$y$ 轴反射(§3)后图像不变。奇函数:$x$ 轴反射与 $y$ 轴反射的复合(即关于原点的反射)后图像不变。
- Standard examples.标准例子。 Even: $f(x) = x^{2}$, $\cos x$, $|x|$, $x^{4}$. Odd: $f(x) = x$, $x^{3}$, $\sin x$, $\tan x$, $1/x$.偶:$f(x) = x^{2}$、$\cos x$、$|x|$、$x^{4}$。奇:$f(x) = x$、$x^{3}$、$\sin x$、$\tan x$、$1/x$。
- Neither is the default."皆非"是默认情形。 Most functions are neither even nor odd. $f(x) = x + 1$, $f(x) = e^{x}$, $f(x) = \sqrt{x}$ all fail both tests.大多数函数既非偶亦非奇。$f(x) = x + 1$、$f(x) = e^{x}$、$f(x) = \sqrt{x}$ 都不满足任何一个。

HSF-BF.B.3says "include recognizing even and odd functions from their graphs and algebraic expressions for them" , the standard treats symmetry as a transformation property, not a separate topic.HSF-BF.B.3末句明确:"包含从图像或代数式识别奇偶函数", 该标准把对称视为变换的一种属性,而非独立主题。
Classify each function as even, odd, or neither: (a) $f(x) = 3 x^{4} - 2 x^{2} + 5$, (b) $g(x) = x^{5} - 7 x$, (c) $h(x) = x^{2} + x$.判定下列函数为奇、偶或皆非:(a) $f(x) = 3 x^{4} - 2 x^{2} + 5$;(b) $g(x) = x^{5} - 7 x$;(c) $h(x) = x^{2} + x$。
(a) Compute $f(-x)$.(a) 计算 $f(-x)$。
$$ f(-x) = 3(-x)^{4} - 2(-x)^{2} + 5 = 3 x^{4} - 2 x^{2} + 5 = f(x). $$Equality with $f(x)$, so $f$ is even. (Predict: all-even-power polynomial plus constant.)$f(-x) = f(x)$,故 $f$ 为偶函数。(预判:仅含偶次项加常数的多项式。)
(b) Compute $g(-x)$.(b) 计算 $g(-x)$。
$$ g(-x) = (-x)^{5} - 7(-x) = -x^{5} + 7 x = -(x^{5} - 7 x) = -g(x). $$Equality with $-g(x)$, so $g$ is odd. (Predict: all-odd-power polynomial, no constant.)$g(-x) = -g(x)$,故 $g$ 为奇函数。(预判:仅含奇次项、无常数的多项式。)
(c) Compute $h(-x)$.(c) 计算 $h(-x)$。
$$ h(-x) = (-x)^{2} + (-x) = x^{2} - x. $$This is neither $h(x) = x^{2} + x$ nor $-h(x) = -x^{2} - x$. So $h$ is neither. (Mixed even and odd powers.)既非 $h(x) = x^{2} + x$ 也非 $-h(x) = -x^{2} - x$,故 $h$ 为皆非。(同时出现奇次与偶次项。)
Quick polynomial heuristic.多项式快速判别。 A polynomial is even iff all terms have even degree (constant counts as degree $0$, which is even). A polynomial is odd iff all terms have odd degree and the constant term is $0$. Mixed parities $\Rightarrow$ neither.多项式为偶 当且仅当 所有项次数为偶(常数算 $0$ 次,亦为偶);为奇 当且仅当 所有项次数为奇且常数项为 $0$。混合奇偶次 $\Rightarrow$ 皆非。

- Inside-out rule.由内向外。 Apply $g$ first, then feed the output of $g$ as the input to $f$. The "$\circ$" symbol is read "composed with"; never multiply.先施加 $g$,再把 $g$ 的输出作为 $f$ 的输入。符号"$\circ$"读作"与…复合";不可读为乘法。
- Not commutative.不交换。 In general $f \circ g \neq g \circ f$. Check on the spot with one numerical input; mismatched outputs prove the non-commutativity in one line.一般 $f \circ g \neq g \circ f$。代入一个数值即可现场验证;输出不同即一行证明不交换。
- Domain of $f \circ g$.$f \circ g$ 的定义域。 $x$ must be in $\mathrm{dom}(g)$ and $g(x)$ must be in $\mathrm{dom}(f)$. The composite often has a smaller domain than $g$ alone.$x$ 须在 $\mathrm{dom}(g)$ 内,且 $g(x)$ 须在 $\mathrm{dom}(f)$ 内。复合的定义域常常比 $g$ 单独的定义域更小。
- Why it matters downstream.为何对后续重要。 AP Calculus opens with the chain rule, which differentiates $f \circ g$. IB Math AA HL B5 builds the transformation form $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$ as a chain of compositions with linear inner functions.AP Calculus 一开学就用链式法则(对 $f \circ g$ 求导)。IB Math AA HL B5 把变换形式 $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$ 看作以线性内函数链式复合。
- AB Math 30-1 indicator 1.5AB Math 30-1 指标 1.5 explicitly names three numerical drills: evaluate $f(f(a))$, $f(g(a))$, $g(f(a))$. Indicator 1.6 then asks for the symbolic composite, and 1.8 reverses the process: given $h$, decompose $h$ into $f \circ g$.明确列出三种数值演练:求 $f(f(a))$、$f(g(a))$、$g(f(a))$。指标 1.6 接续要求符号复合;1.8 反向:给定 $h$,分解为 $f \circ g$。
Let $f(x) = 2 x + 1$ and $g(x) = x^{2}$. Find $(f \circ g)(x)$ and $(g \circ f)(x)$ as simplified algebraic expressions, then evaluate each at $x = 3$ to confirm $f \circ g \neq g \circ f$.设 $f(x) = 2 x + 1$、$g(x) = x^{2}$。求 $(f \circ g)(x)$ 与 $(g \circ f)(x)$ 的化简表达式,并在 $x = 3$ 处求值以验证 $f \circ g \neq g \circ f$。
Build $(f \circ g)(x)$.构造 $(f \circ g)(x)$。 Apply $g$ first to get $x^{2}$, then feed into $f$: $f(x^{2}) = 2 x^{2} + 1$.先用 $g$ 得 $x^{2}$,再代入 $f$:$f(x^{2}) = 2 x^{2} + 1$。
$$ (f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(x^{2}) = 2 x^{2} + 1. $$Build $(g \circ f)(x)$.构造 $(g \circ f)(x)$。 Apply $f$ first to get $2 x + 1$, then square: $g(2 x + 1) = (2 x + 1)^{2} = 4 x^{2} + 4 x + 1$.先用 $f$ 得 $2 x + 1$,再平方:$g(2 x + 1) = (2 x + 1)^{2} = 4 x^{2} + 4 x + 1$。
$$ (g \circ f)(x) = g(f(x)) = (2 x + 1)^{2} = 4 x^{2} + 4 x + 1. $$Check at $x = 3$.在 $x = 3$ 处核验。 $(f \circ g)(3) = 2 \cdot 9 + 1 = 19$. $(g \circ f)(3) = (2 \cdot 3 + 1)^{2} = 7^{2} = 49$. Different , so $f \circ g \neq g \circ f$.$(f \circ g)(3) = 2 \cdot 9 + 1 = 19$;$(g \circ f)(3) = (2 \cdot 3 + 1)^{2} = 7^{2} = 49$。不相等, 故 $f \circ g \neq g \circ f$。
Inverse Functions: Definition, One-to-One, and the Swap-and-Solve Method反函数:定义、一一对应与"互换求解"法
$f^{-1}$ is the function (when it exists) satisfying$f^{-1}$ 是满足如下条件的函数(若存在):
$$ f^{-1}(f(x)) = x \;\;\text{for all } x \in \mathrm{dom}(f), \qquad f(f^{-1}(y)) = y \;\;\text{for all } y \in \mathrm{dom}(f^{-1}). $$- One-to-one is required.必须一一对应。 $f$ has an inverse function iff each output of $f$ comes from exactly one input. Test graphically with the horizontal line test: every horizontal line hits the graph at most once.$f$ 具有反函数 当且仅当 每个输出仅对应唯一输入。图像上用水平线测试:任何水平线与图像至多交于一点。
- Graph: reflect over $y = x$.图像:关于 $y = x$ 反射。 If $(a, b)$ is on the graph of $f$, then $(b, a)$ is on the graph of $f^{-1}$. The coordinate map is $(x, y) \to (y, x)$ , the third reflection rule from §3 (AB Math 30-1 indicator 5.1).若 $(a, b)$ 在 $f$ 上,则 $(b, a)$ 在 $f^{-1}$ 上。坐标规则 $(x, y) \to (y, x)$, §3 的第三种反射(AB Math 30-1 指标 5.1)。
- Swap and solve.互换并求解。 Algebraic technique: (1) write $y = f(x)$; (2) swap $x$ and $y$; (3) solve for $y$; (4) rename $y$ as $f^{-1}(x)$. The swap step is the algebraic shadow of the graphical reflection over $y = x$.代数技巧:(1) 写 $y = f(x)$;(2) 互换 $x$ 与 $y$;(3) 解出 $y$;(4) 将 $y$ 改名为 $f^{-1}(x)$。"互换"正是图像反射 $y = x$ 的代数对应。
- Domain and range swap.定义域与值域互换。 $\mathrm{dom}(f^{-1}) = \mathrm{range}(f)$ and $\mathrm{range}(f^{-1}) = \mathrm{dom}(f)$. Reading domain off $f^{-1}$ requires reading range off $f$.$\mathrm{dom}(f^{-1}) = \mathrm{range}(f)$,$\mathrm{range}(f^{-1}) = \mathrm{dom}(f)$。读 $f^{-1}$ 的定义域即读 $f$ 的值域。
- Restrict the domain to force one-to-one.限制定义域以强制一一对应。 $f(x) = x^{2}$ fails the horizontal line test on $\mathbb{R}$. Restricting to $x \ge 0$ makes it one-to-one and gives $f^{-1}(x) = \sqrt{x}$. AB Math 30-1 indicator 6.5 names this technique explicitly; CCSSM
HSF-BF.B.4.dtoo.$f(x) = x^{2}$ 在 $\mathbb{R}$ 上不满足水平线测试。限制 $x \ge 0$ 使其一一对应,得 $f^{-1}(x) = \sqrt{x}$。AB Math 30-1 指标 6.5 明确点名此法;CCSSMHSF-BF.B.4.d亦同。 - Notation warning.记号警示。 $f^{-1}(x)$ is the inverse function; it does not mean $1/f(x)$. The exponent-style notation is conventional, not literal.$f^{-1}(x)$ 是反函数;不等于 $1/f(x)$。指数式写法是约定,不是字面意义。
Find the inverse of $f(x) = 3 x - 7$, then verify that $f(f^{-1}(x)) = x$.求 $f(x) = 3 x - 7$ 的反函数,并验证 $f(f^{-1}(x)) = x$。
Step 1 · Write $y = f(x)$.第 1 步:写 $y = f(x)$。 $$ y = 3 x - 7. $$
Step 2 · Swap $x$ and $y$.第 2 步:互换 $x$ 与 $y$。 $$ x = 3 y - 7. $$
Step 3 · Solve for $y$.第 3 步:解 $y$。 $$ x + 7 = 3 y \;\;\Longrightarrow\;\; y = \frac{x + 7}{3}. $$
Step 4 · Rename.第 4 步:改名。 $$ f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x + 7}{3}. $$
Verify.核验。 $f(f^{-1}(x)) = 3 \cdot \tfrac{x + 7}{3} - 7 = (x + 7) - 7 = x$. ✓ Also $f^{-1}(f(x)) = \tfrac{(3x - 7) + 7}{3} = \tfrac{3x}{3} = x$. ✓$f(f^{-1}(x)) = 3 \cdot \tfrac{x + 7}{3} - 7 = (x + 7) - 7 = x$。✓ 另:$f^{-1}(f(x)) = \tfrac{(3x - 7) + 7}{3} = \tfrac{3x}{3} = x$。✓
Show that $f(x) = (x - 2)^{2}$ on its full real domain has no inverse function. Restrict the domain so that an inverse function exists, then find it.证明 $f(x) = (x - 2)^{2}$ 在整个实数定义域上没有反函数。限制定义域使反函数存在,并求出它。
Why no inverse on $\mathbb{R}$.为何在 $\mathbb{R}$ 上无反函数。 $f(0) = 4$ and $f(4) = 4$ , two inputs give the same output, so $f$ is not one-to-one. Equivalently, the horizontal line $y = 4$ hits the parabola twice.$f(0) = 4$ 且 $f(4) = 4$, 两输入给同一输出,故非一一对应。等价地,水平线 $y = 4$ 与抛物线相交两次。
Restrict to a one-to-one branch.限制至一个一一对应的分支。 Take $x \ge 2$ (the right half of the parabola, where it is increasing). On this restricted domain, $f$ is one-to-one. Range of restricted $f$: $y \ge 0$.取 $x \ge 2$(抛物线右半部,单调递增)。在该限制定义域上 $f$ 一一对应。受限 $f$ 的值域:$y \ge 0$。
Swap and solve.互换求解。 $y = (x - 2)^{2}$, swap to get $x = (y - 2)^{2}$. Solve: $y - 2 = \pm\sqrt{x}$, so $y = 2 \pm \sqrt{x}$. Since the restricted-domain branch needs $y \ge 2$ (because $\mathrm{range}(f^{-1}) = \mathrm{dom}(f) = [2, \infty)$), take the plus sign:$y = (x - 2)^{2}$,互换得 $x = (y - 2)^{2}$。解:$y - 2 = \pm\sqrt{x}$,即 $y = 2 \pm \sqrt{x}$。由于反函数的值域 $= f$ 的限制定义域 $= [2, \infty)$,故取加号:
$$ f^{-1}(x) = 2 + \sqrt{x}, \qquad \mathrm{dom}(f^{-1}) = [0, \infty). $$Verify at a point.用一点核验。 $f(5) = (5 - 2)^{2} = 9$; $f^{-1}(9) = 2 + \sqrt{9} = 2 + 3 = 5$. ✓$f(5) = (5 - 2)^{2} = 9$;$f^{-1}(9) = 2 + \sqrt{9} = 5$。✓
Exam Strategy and Common Pitfalls考试策略与常见陷阱
- Read $h$ from $(x - h)$, never from $(x + \text{thing})$.从 $(x - h)$ 读 $h$,不要直接从 $(x + $ …$)$ 读。 Rewrite $(x + 3)$ as $(x - (-3))$ so $h = -3$. This is the single most common slip on transformation problems.把 $(x + 3)$ 改写为 $(x - (-3))$,得 $h = -3$。这是变换类题最常见的错误。
- Factor $b$ out of the argument first.先把 $b$ 因式提出。 $f(2x - 6)$ is $f(2(x - 3))$, not $f(2x - 6)$ with $h = 6$. The master form is $b(x - h)$, not $bx - bh$.$f(2x - 6) = f(2(x - 3))$,并非 $h = 6$。主形式是 $b(x - h)$,不是 $bx - bh$。
- Inside vs. outside."内"与"外"。 Changes inside the function affect the $x$-direction (and often invert intuition). Changes outside affect the $y$-direction (intuitive). When you can't decide which axis to flip, ask: "is the constant inside or outside $f$?"作用在内的改动影响 $x$ 方向(常与直觉相反);作用在外的改动影响 $y$ 方向(符合直觉)。判别时问:"常数在 $f$ 内还是外?"
- Always check a single point.总用一点验证。 If the question gives you a point on the parent, run it through the coordinate map for the proposed transformation and read it on the new graph. One numerical check catches sign errors.若题目给出母函数上一点,把它代入坐标映射并在新图上读出。一次数值核验可拦截符号错误。
- Use the test points $x$-intercept, $y$-intercept, vertex.用特征点:$x$ 截距、$y$ 截距、顶点。 A vertical stretch fixes the $x$-intercepts; a horizontal stretch fixes the $y$-intercept; a vertical shift moves the $y$-intercept by $k$; a horizontal shift moves the $x$-intercept by $h$.竖直伸缩保留 $x$ 截距;水平伸缩保留 $y$ 截距;竖直平移使 $y$ 截距移动 $k$;水平平移使 $x$ 截距移动 $h$。
- Memorise the coordinate map.背熟坐标映射。 $$(x, y) \;\to\; \left(\tfrac{x}{b} + h, \;\; a y + k\right).$$ Every transformation question reduces to running points through this map. AB Math 30-1 4.1 and Ontario A1.9 are both graded against this.每道变换题都归结为把点代入此映射。AB Math 30-1 4.1 与 ON A1.9 均按此评分。
- Order: stretches before shifts.顺序:先伸缩,后平移。 Apply the $a, b$ moves before the $h, k$ moves. If you apply the shift first you'll land in the wrong place.先做 $a, b$,再做 $h, k$。颠倒会落到错误位置。
- For composition, write it inside out.复合题:由内向外写。 $(f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))$. Apply $g$, then $f$ , never the other way. Always sanity-check on one numerical input.$(f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))$。先 $g$ 再 $f$, 不可颠倒。用一个数值输入做核验。
- Composition does not commute.复合不交换。 $f \circ g \neq g \circ f$ unless you can explicitly prove otherwise. The non-commutativity is the source of many AP Calculus chain-rule errors.$f \circ g \neq g \circ f$,除非能显式证明相等。AP Calculus 中链式法则的诸多错误源自忽视此不交换性。
- For inverses, check one-to-one first.反函数:先验一一对应。 Without one-to-one, no inverse function exists. If the function isn't one-to-one on its natural domain, restrict (AB Math 30-1 indicator 6.5; CCSSM
HSF-BF.B.4.d).非一一对应则无反函数。若在自然定义域上非一一对应,则限制定义域(AB Math 30-1 指标 6.5;CCSSMHSF-BF.B.4.d)。 - Verify by composition.用复合核验。 After swap-and-solve, check $f(f^{-1}(x)) = x$ and $f^{-1}(f(x)) = x$. Both directions must collapse to $x$."互换求解"后,须核验 $f(f^{-1}(x)) = x$ 且 $f^{-1}(f(x)) = x$,两式都须化为 $x$。

What This Feeds Into本单元的去向
Function transformations and composition are the algebra-side foundation for every later course that draws a graph. Composition reappears in AP Calculus as the chain rule and in IB Math AA HL Topic E1; inverse functions resurface as $\arcsin, \arccos, \arctan$ in Unit 8 and as $\ln x$ in Unit 5. The master form $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$ is the literal IB Math AA HL Topic B5 statement and the AP-feeder Pre-Calc / Honors target. Cross-references below point at units already shipped in this repo.函数变换与复合是后续所有"画图"课程的代数底座。复合在 AP Calculus 中以链式法则、在 IB Math AA HL Topic E1 中再现;反函数在 Unit 8 重现为 $\arcsin, \arccos, \arctan$,在 Unit 5 中重现为 $\ln x$。主形式 $y = a f(b(x - h)) + k$ 即 IB Math AA HL Topic B5 的原文表述,也是 AP 衔接 Pre-Calc / 荣誉级的目标。下方链接指向本仓库已有单元。
Within High School Math.在 HS Math 内部。
Unit 5 (Exponential and Logarithmic) treats $\ln x$ as the inverse of $e^{x}$ , the swap-and-solve technique from §7 applied to the transcendental case. Unit 8 (Unit-Circle Trig) defines $\arcsin, \arccos, \arctan$ as inverses of $\sin, \cos, \tan$ with domain restrictions read straight off §7's one-to-one requirement. Unit 9 (Trig Identities) uses transformations of $\sin x$ and $\cos x$ (amplitude $a$, period $2\pi/|b|$, phase $h$, vertical shift $k$) reading the master form against the trig parent.Unit 5(指数与对数)把 $\ln x$ 视为 $e^{x}$ 的反函数, 即把 §7 的"互换求解"用在超越情形。Unit 8(单位圆三角学)把 $\arcsin, \arccos, \arctan$ 定义为 $\sin, \cos, \tan$ 的反函数,定义域限制直接来自 §7 的一一对应要求。Unit 9(恒等式)用 $\sin x$、$\cos x$ 的变换(振幅 $a$、周期 $2\pi/|b|$、相位 $h$、竖直平移 $k$),把主形式套到三角母函数上。

If you are aiming for the SAT, expect a handful of transformation reads and one or two inverse-function items in the calculator section. If you are aiming for AP Calculus, fluent composition is required for the chain rule from week one. For IB Math AA HL, Topic B5 is the literal continuation of §4 and Topic E1 needs both §6 (composition) and §7 (inverse, for the derivative of $f^{-1}$).备考 SAT:计算器节会出现少量变换识别题和一两道反函数题。备考 AP Calculus:第一周即用链式法则,须熟练复合。备考 IB Math AA HL:Topic B5 是 §4 的直接延续;Topic E1 同时需要 §6(复合)与 §7(反函数求导)。
