For the given function, identify the transformation from the parent function y=b^x
y=-1/4*3^x
Identify the appropriate transformation, if applicable, relative to stretching or compression. Select the correct choice from the drop down and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
The graph is blank , The factor of stretch/compression is what? (type an integer or fraction).
for the blank select between, stretched, compressed, neither stretched or compressed
The given function is y = (-1/4)(3^x).
This function is a compression of the parent function y = b^x, where b is the base of the exponential function.
The factor of compression is 1/3.
