How do you graph $y = 3 tan x$ $y=3tanx$ ?

1 Answer

Feb 18, 2018

$y$ $y$ is the standard graph of $f (x) = tan x$ $f(x) =tanx$ scaled by 3 units.

Explanation:

$y = 3 tan x$ $y=3tanx$

Consider the standard graph of $f (x) = tan x$ $f(x) =tanx$ below.

graph{tanx [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Then, $y = 3 \times f (x)$ $y=3xxf(x)$ as represented by the graph below.

graph{3tanx [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
