Visualizing Functions: From Tables to Transformation Figures

Problem: Suppose that the variable y is a function of x with y = f (x). Given the following table for the function, move the points A, B, C, and D on the transformation figure to match the ordered pairs of data in the table. 

You can click on the button in the figure to see how this data is represented on a cartesian graph.

Sorry, this page requires a Java-compatible web browser. 

Here are two other tables of data. Assume that each is data from a function.
Move the points A, B, C, and D on the transformation figure to match the ordered pairs of data in each table
