Interactive practice questions
Choose the statement that best describes how to get the graph of $y=-5\tan x$y=−5tanx from the parent function $y=\tan x$y=tanx.
The graph of $y=\tan x$y=tanx has been stretched vertically.
The graph of $y=\tan x$y=tanx has been stretched vertically and reflected across the $x$x-axis.
The graph of $y=\tan x$y=tanx has been compressed vertically and reflected across the $x$x-axis.
The graph of $y=\tan x$y=tanx has been compressed vertically.
The graph of $y=\tan x$y=tanx is shown below. On the same set of axes, draw the graph of $y=5\tan x$y=5tanx.
Consider the graph of $y=\tan x$y=tanx shown below. Drag the control points to draw the graph of $y=\frac{1}{2}\tan x$y=12tanx on the same axes.
Consider the graph of $y=\tan x$y=tanx shown below. On the same set of axes, draw the graph of $y=-\frac{1}{3}\tan x$y=−13tanx.
