This applet has 5 different functions. Your goals, will be to see how the function f(x) is transformed, when going to f(q*x), q>0.
You can move slider "q", and push "Switch Function" to cycle through the 5 available functions. Try it out, and then answer the questions below.
This type of transformation, is also called stretches.
Question 1: Using the word stretch, describe the effect of "q", when y=f(x) is transformed to y=f(q*x). Be specific!
Question 2: Discuss the differences when q>1 and when q<1.
