Question

The function g(x) is a transformation of the function f(x) = ? . Which of the following correctly describes g(x)?

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

b. g(x) = 0.5f(x)

Explanation:

Compared to the line y=x, the graph of g(x) has a vertical scale factor of 1/2. We can also observe that the equation for g(x) is ...

g(x) = 1/2x

If we substitute f(x) for x, then this is ...

g(x) = 1/2f(x) . . . . matches choice B
