Stretch or shrink of curve or reflection across the x-axis is illustrated with the a_o-slider, with respect to y-axis use a_i. [br]The value of the base starts at 1 and increments by 0.25, for values between 0 and 1 change the domain button to (0, 1).

This applet can be used by teachers in a demonstration mode in the classroom or teachers can have students load it on their own computers as a worksheet to be completed for a grade.
