We are given equation of parabola: y= x^2.

We know, the vertex form of the parabola is given by function

y= a(x-h)^2 +k.

Where coefficent a is the called the vertical scale factor of parabola.

We need to find the equation of parabola that is scaled by a factor 7 vertically of the given parent fuction of the parabola.

Therefore, for the given problem we have the value vertical scale factor a =7.

So, we need to put 7 in front of x^2 in the given function.

Therefore, y = 7 x^2 is scaled vertically by a factor of 7 of the y= x^2 parabola.
