The document discusses parent functions and transformations of functions. A parent function is the simplest form of a function, such as a linear function or quadratic function. Transformations include translations that shift the graph up, down, left or right, as well as stretches and shrinks that change the scale of the y-values, and reflections that flip the graph over the x-axis. Examples are provided of graphing parent functions and applying various transformations to the parent graphs through shifting, stretching, shrinking and reflecting. The key aspects of identifying the parent function from a transformed function and describing the transformations are also covered.
