\item
translation of \(h\) units \(\parallel x\)-axis/from \(y\)-axis
\item
- for \((ax)^n\), dilation factor is \(1 \over a \> \parallel x\)-axis/from \(y\)-axis
+ for \((ax)^n\), dilation factor is \(\frac{1}{a} \> \parallel x\)-axis/from \(y\)-axis
\item
when \(0 < |a| < 1\), graph becomes closer to axis
\end{itemize}
