From the diagram of the two functions graph f(x) is the parent function and g(x) is the transformed function. you can see that the graph of g(x) is stretched vertically compared to the graph of g(x). The Parent function has y =1 corresponding to x =1 while for the transformed function when x = 1, y = 4 the graph is vertically stretched by a factor of 4, and horizontally The Parent function has y =1 corresponding to x =1. while for the transformed function when x = 0.5, y = 1, it is stretched horizontally by 2 (√4), i.e
