Question

Graph the equation shown below by transforming the given graph of the parent functiony = 3x²

Answer 1

The parent function is y = x²​

The function y = 3x²​ vertically stretches the parent function, transforming the point (x, y) into (x, 3y)

For example, in the parent function you have the point (1, 1), then in the stretched function you will have the point (1, 3); in the parent function you have the point (2, 4), then in the stretched function you will have the point (2, 12); and so on.
