Function transformations are used to examine the relationship between graphs and equations for rational functions of the form y=a/(x-h)+k. Concepts are first explored in general with technology and then later used in several examples of graphing, analyzing, and writing the equation of rational functions.
My instructional approach emphasizes conceptual understanding of and connections between concepts and ideas, rather than just pure memorization.
Corresponds to chapter 9, section 9.1 in McGraw-Hill's Pre-Calculus 12, but also fits with the rational functions unit from almost any other Pre-Calculus course or textbook.
