We can stretch or compress it in the y-direction by multiplying the whole function by a constant.
stretches it
compresses it

Summary: for future reference
We can do all transformation in one go using this:

is vertical stretch/compression
stretches
compresses
flips the graph upside down
is horizontal stretch/compression
compresses
stretches
flips the graph left-right
is horizontal shift
shifts to the right
shifts to the left
is vertical shift
shifts upward
shifts downward
