Judy knows that the function graphed below is a transformation of the parent function . Since the period and asymptotes are the same as those of the parent function, she knows that there were no horizontal stretches, compressions, or translations. She can also tell that there were no reflections since the general shape of the graph is the same as that of the parent function. Which statement is correct regarding the transformations that were applied?

Question illustration
A
Since the y-intercept of the graph is , the graph of the parent function was translated 0.5 units down, and since the graph passes through the point instead of , the graph was vertically compressed.
Option A
B
Since the y-intercept of the graph is , the graph of the parent function was translated 0.5 units down, and since the graph passes through the point instead of , the graph was vertically stretched.
Option B
C
Since the y-intercept of the graph is , the graph of the parent function was translated 1.5 units down, and since the graph passes through the point instead of , the graph was vertically compressed.
Option C
D
Since the y-intercept of the graph is , the graph of the parent function was translated 1.5 units down, and since the graph passes through the point instead of , the graph was vertically stretched.
