Question

An upward open parabola passes through 5 plotted points on a coordinate plane with x-axis ranging from negative 12 to 12 in increments of 2 and y-axis ranging from negative 6 to 18 in increments of 2.

Interpret the key features of the graph. What type of transformation occurred from the parent function?

This is a vertical stretch of the parent function y=x2 due to the changes in the y-intercept.
This is a vertical stretch of the parent function y equals x squared due to the changes in the y -intercept.

This is a vertical stretch of the parent function y=x2 due to the changes in the y-coordinates of each point.
This is a vertical stretch of the parent function y equals x squared due to the changes in the y -coordinates of each point.

This is a vertical stretch of the parent function y=x2 due to the changes in the x-intercept.
This is a vertical stretch of the parent function y equals x squared due to the changes in the x- intercept.

This is a vertical stretch of the parent function y=x2 due to the changes in the x-coordinates of each point.

Answer 1

This is a vertical stretch of the parent function y=x^2 due to the changes in the y-coordinates of each point. The parabola passes through 5 plotted points and the y-values have been stretched vertically compared to the parent function y=x^2.
