\bf 4x^2\impliedby x^2\textit{ with a shrink factor of }(1)/(4) \\\\\\ -2^(x+1)\impliedby 2^x\textit{ flipped upside-down with a horizontal shift of +1} \\\\\\ e^(3x-2)\impliedby e^x\textit{ with a vertical shrink of }(1)/(3)\textit{ and a horizonta shift of -2}

there's one left out, reason why, is because is has no shifts or stretches or any other transformations, because is a parent function, and should be obvious by its absence.
