Write an equation for the graph of
\n" ); document.write( "y=x^2 that has been
\n" ); document.write( "vertically expanded by a factor of 4: y = (1/4)x^2
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "horizontally compressed by a factor of 1/5 : y = (5/4)x^2
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "reflected across the y-axis: y = -(5/4)x^2
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "translated 3 units to the right: y = -(5/4)(x-3)^2
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "and up 4 units: y = -(5/4)(x-3)^2 + 4
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Comment: Your \"vertically expanded\" and \"horizontally compressed\"
\n" ); document.write( "are ambiguous terms.
