Support · Stage 5 · Functions and other graphs (Path)

Support Use graphing applications to graph and compare functions of the form y = f(x),y = f(x) + c, y = f(x - b), y = kf(x) and y = f(ax), and describe their transformations

Resources for the prerequisite content of this dot point: earlier-stage (or earlier sub-level) dot points in the same strand that students usually need first. Use these to fill gaps before or alongside the core lesson.

Prerequisite links are draft mappings generated from the syllabus structure (earlier stage, same strand, closest content). They are being reviewed by teachers. Spot a poor match? Tell us.
