D) Vertically compressed
E) Flatter
=====================================================
Explanation:
An example would be if a = 0.5 which leads to the graph being half as tall as it used to be since 1/2 = 0.5; notice how a = 0.5 makes 0 < a < 1 true. Since the graph is squished vertically, the graph is flatter.
We don't have a reflection over the x axis since 'a' is not negative.
----------------
Extra info:
- If a > 1 then the graph is stretched vertically to make it taller than it used to be. Eg: a = 5 leads to the graph being 5 times taller than before which also would make it steeper too.
- The value of d handles the vertical shifting. If d > 0, then we shift up d units. If d < 0, then we shift down |d| units.
