Math Problem Statement
If f(x) is the logarithmic parent function, which statement best describes how its intercepts change when transformed to g(x)=a⋅f(x) for some a∈R? A.The x-intercepts stay the same but the y-intercepts are multiplied by a. B.The y-intercepts stay the same but the x-intercepts are multiplied by a. C.The y-intercepts are increased by a; the x-intercepts change depending on the shape of the function. D.The x-intercepts are increased by a; the y-intercepts change depending on the shape of the function.
