Question

Which equation describes how the parent function y=x^3, is vertically streched by a factor of 4

Answer 1

Answer:

$y=4x^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

'Vertical stretch means that the function stretches up and down towards the y-axis'.

i.e. The general form of vertical stretch is given by 'kf(x)', where k>1 is the factor by which function is stretched.

So, the given function, $y=x^{3}$ is stretched by a factor of 4.

So, the new function formed will be $y=4x^{3}$.

Hence, the equation describing the vertical stretch is $y=4x^{3}$.
