Question

what does the transformation of 1/4f(x) do to the graph f(x)a) shrinks it horizontallyb) stretches it horizontally

Answer 1

The given transformation is

`f(x)\rightarrow(1)/(4)f(x)`

Remember, when we divide the function by a number, we are vertically compressing the function.

Therefore, the right answer is a) shrinks it horizontally.
