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