The transformation from f to g represents a __________ stretch. f(x)=√(x) g(x)=√(0.4x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

horizontal? or vertical stretch?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please help!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how can u tell?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh i see.. thankyou!!

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

oops i'm so sorry its stretch parallel to x-axis - thats horizontal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh so its horizontal.. not vertical?

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

i do apologies i'll show you the 2 graphs on a link to prove it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh no dont apologize..everyone makes mistakes.. im doing a homework/quiz so i didnt submit it yet!

http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=y+%3D+square+root+%28x%29%2C++y+%3D+square+root+%280.4x%29 the blue curve is square root x and the red is sort (0.4x) i've got those mixed up before

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh .. yeah thankyou! but by anychance.. do u no the answer to this question? Describe how to transform the graph of f into the graph of g. f(x) = x3 and g(x) = - x3 A. Reflect the graph of f across the x-axis. B. Reflect the graph of f across the y-axis. C. Shift the graph of f down 1 unit. D. Reflect the graph of f across the x-axis and then reflect across the y-axis.

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

values of f(x) are transformed to -f(x) A reflection in x-axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so itd be A? then

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh thank you so much!!
