How does the value of a affect the graph of a monomial function?

AAs |a| increases, the graph widens; as |a| decreases, the graph narrows.

BAs |a| increases, the graph narrows; as |a| decreases, the graph widens.

CAs |a| increases, the graph translates to the right; as |a| decreases, the graph translates to the left.

DAs |a| increases, the graph translates up; as |a| decreases, the graph translates down.

A monomial function has this form: ax^n

The coefficient "a" modifies the graph of the function by stretching it as ia"grows.

A big absolute value of "a", i.e. |a| will result is an elgongated function.

The answer is the option B. As |a| increases, the graph narrows; as |a| decreases, the graph widens.

The correct answer is B, or As |a| increases, the graph narrows; as |a| decreases, the graph widens.

Just got it right on edge 2020, hope this helps!! :)
