The transformed function \( y = 4f(x) \) indicates that the parent function \( f(x) \) has been vertically stretched by a factor of 4. This means that all y-values of the parent function are multiplied by 4.

So, the correct response is:

The parent function has been vertically stretched by a factor of 4.
