If you vertically stretch the linear parent function, fx) = x, by multiplying by 3,
what is the equation of the new function?

New function is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The parent function given is:

Now, as per transformation rules, if a graph is vertically stretched by a factor of 'C' such that 'C' is greater than 1, then the function rule is given as:

So, we multiply the given function by 'C' units to get the transformed function.

Here, and

As 3 > 1, therefore, the equation of the new function is given as:

Therefore, the equation of the new function is 3 times the original function and is equal to .

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
