2.4: Graphing Techniques
Memorize rules for determining symmetry
– A graph has y-axis symmetry if replacing x with -x results in an equivalent equation
– A graph has x-axis symmetry if replacing y with -y results in an equivalent equation
– A graph has origin symmetry if replacing both x with -x and y with -y results in an equivalent
equation
Be familiar with common restrictions:

9. Graph y =
2 x
3 + 1.
Solution:
No symmetry

x intercepts at (
, 0) and (
, 0), y intercept at (0, 5)

No restrictions on x. y
1
The graph of y = x is shifted reflected across the x-axis and becomes twice as narrow. Then it
is shifted 1 unit up and 3 units right.

10. Graph y =
x
+ x

Solution:
No symmetry
x intercepts at ( 2, 0) and (1, 0), no y intercept
x

You have to plot points since there isn’t really a basic graph we’re working with here.
x + 1
11. Graph y =
