Answer:
Multiplying a function by a constant expands the graph vertically by the magnitude of the constant. (If the constant is negative, the graph is also reflected about the x-axis.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Each value of a·ln(x) will be a factor of "a" farther away from the x-axis than it is for the parent function ln(x). That is, a·ln(x) is a vertically expanded version of the parent function ln(x). When |a| > 1, the expansion increases the distance from the x-axis.
