hi how do calculate the coordinates for a vertical stretch and how doy ou find the new coordinates of a vertical compression in quadratic functions

Considering a quadratic equation as a transformation of the graph of y = x^2 we get A(x-b)^2 +c b and c are the shift. c moves the whole graph up or down if it is negative. b moves the whole graph right or left if it is negative. A is what stretches or compresses the function. If A is greater than 1, all the y values are increased, so it stretches it up. If A is less than 1, all of the y values are decreased, so it compresses it down. If A is negative, the whole graph gets flipped vertically.

by how much does the y values and x values increase and decrease
