The correct interpretation of the transformation that occurred from the parent function \( y = x^2 \) is:
**This is a vertical stretch of the parent function \( y=x^2 \) due to the changes in the y-coordinates of each point.**
A vertical stretch would imply that the values of \( y \) increase more rapidly than they would for the standard \( y = x^2 \) function, affecting the y-coordinates of the points plotted on the graph, while the x-coordinates dictate the horizontal positioning of the parabola but do not influence the vertical stretching directly.
