Question

Suppose that f(x) = x2 and g(x) = x2. Which statement best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x)?

A. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) stretched vertically.
B. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) stretched vertically and flipped over the x-axis.
C. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) compressed vertically and flipped over the x-axis.
D. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) compressed vertically.

Answer 1

the anaswer would be a because if it is streched that long then the graph would be 2

Answer 2

Answer:

Option A. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) stretched vertically.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of g(x) is a graph of f(x) stretched vertically.

A transformation for stretching occurs when a > 1. By the transformation, the graph will be stretched vertically.

If the factor is 0 < a < 1 or 0 < a < 1,  the graph will experience negative stretching. In other words, the graph has been compressed.
