IntroductionTransformations can be made to functions in two distinct ways: by transforming the core variable of the function (multiplying the independent variable by k), and by transforming the function as a whole (multiplying the dependent variable by k). Previously, we saw how adding some constant k to the variable of a function or to the entire function affected the graph of the function.
In this lesson, we will see how multiplying by a constant affects the graph of a function. Given f(x) and a constant k, we will observe the transformations f(k • x) and k • f(x).

Key ConceptsGraphing and Points of Interest • In the graph of a function, there are key points of
interest that define the graph and represent the characteristics of the function.
• When a function is transformed, the key points of the graph define the transformation.
• The key points in the graph of a quadratic equation are the vertex and the roots, or x-intercepts.

Key Concepts, continuedMultiplying the Dependent Variable by a Constant, k: k • f(x) • In general, multiplying a function by a constant will
stretch or shrink (compress) the graph of f vertically. • If k > 1, the graph of f(x) will stretch vertically by a
factor of k (so the parabola will appear narrower). • A vertical stretch pulls the parabola and stretches it
away from the x-axis. • If 0 < k < 1, the graph of f(x) will shrink or compress
vertically by a factor of k (so the parabola will appear wider).

Key Concepts, continued• A vertical compression squeezes the parabola
toward the x-axis. • If k < 0, the parabola will be first stretched or
compressed and then reflected over the x-axis. • The x-intercepts (roots) will remain the same, as will
the x-coordinate of the vertex (the axis of symmetry). • While k • f(x) = f(k • x) can be true, generally
k • f(x) ≠ f(k • x).

Key Concepts, continuedMultiplying the Independent Variable by a Constant, k: f(k • x) • In general, multiplying the independent variable in a
function by a constant will stretch or shrink the graph of f horizontally.
• If k > 1, the graph of f(x) will shrink or compress
horizontally by a factor of (so the parabola will
appear narrower). • A horizontal compression squeezes the parabola
toward the y-axis.8

Key Concepts, continued• When a constant k is multiplied by the variable x of a
function f(x), the interval of the intercepts of the function is increased or decreased depending on the value of k.

the quadratic formula,
• Remember that in the standard form of an equation, ax2 + bx + c, the only variable is x; a, b, and c represent constants.

Common Errors/Misconceptions• thinking that multiplying the dependent variable by a
constant k yields the same equation as multiplying the independent variable by the same constant k in all cases (i.e., that k • f(x) is always equal to f(k • x), but this is not always true)
• forgetting to substitute all values of x with k • x when working with the transformation f(k • x)
• forgetting to square the constant k when substituting f(k • x) into ax2 + bx + c
• confusing horizontal with vertical transformations and vice versa
• confusing stretches and compressions16

3. Compare the graphs. Notice the position of the vertex has not changed in the transformation of f(x). Therefore, both equations have same root, x = 0. However, notice the inner graph, 2x2, is more narrow than x2 because the value of 2 • f(x) is increasing twice as fast as the value off(x). Since k > 1, the graph of f(x) will stretch vertically by a factor of 2. The parabola appears narrower.

4. Compare the graphs.
Notice the position of the vertex has not changed in
the transformation of f(x). However, notice the inner
graph, f(3x) = 9x2 – 81, is narrower than f(x).
Specifically, the roots are x = –9 and 9 for f(x) and
x = –3 and 3 for f(3x). This is because the roots of the
function f(k • x) are times the roots of f(x) in a
quadratic equation. 31
