Is this correct?
Describe how to transform the graph of f into graph of g f(x)=\[\sqrt{x}\] g(x)=\[\sqrt{0.5}\] and i think its vertically strech the graph of f by a factor of 50
i think there is a typo
where?
its f(x)=\[\sqrt{x} \] g(x)=\[\sqrt{0.5x}\]
\(\large\color{slate}{ f(x)=\sqrt{x} }\) \(\large\color{slate}{ g(x)=\sqrt{0.5x} }\) let's re-write the g(x), \(\large\color{slate}{ f(x)=\sqrt{x} }\) \(\large\color{slate}{ g(x)=(\sqrt{~0.5}) \cdot \sqrt{x} }\)
By how much are you stretching the f(x), by what scale factor?
by 2?
(stretch, can be also shrink)
See how I have these to function, \(\large\color{slate}{ f(x)=\sqrt{x} }\) \(\large\color{slate}{ g(x)=(\sqrt{~0.5}) \cdot \sqrt{x} }\) ? ?
\(\large\color{slate}{ f(x)=\sqrt{x} }\) \(\large\color{slate}{ g(x)=(\sqrt{~0.5}) \cdot \sqrt{x} }\) you are multiplying the g(x) times \(\large\color{slate}{ \sqrt{~0.5} }\)
oh okay
so what are you doing to f(x) to make it g(x) ?
I think f(x) would have to horziontally shrink by a factor of 50?
why 50 ?
oh i calculated wrong. That's what i got in my first answer but i think i did it wrong. It would be by a factor of two since its mutplying (square root of 0.5 ) (square root x) since 0.5 is a factor of two. Wouldnt it just be vertically streched by a factor of 2?
\(\large\color{slate}{ g(x)=(\sqrt{~0.5}) \cdot \sqrt{x} }\) lets play with g(x), \(\large\color{slate}{ g(x)=(\sqrt{1/2}) \cdot \sqrt{x} }\) \(\large\color{slate}{ g(x)=(\sqrt{1}/\sqrt{2}) \cdot \sqrt{x} }\) \(\large\color{slate}{ g(x)=(1/\sqrt{2}) \cdot \sqrt{x} }\) (multiplying top and bottom of this fraction time square root of 2, \(\large\color{slate}{ g(x)=(\sqrt{2}/2) \cdot \sqrt{x} }\)
so its being shrinked?
stretched by sqrt{2}/2, ( yes shrinked.... )
in my answers it says either horizontally or vertically. It's being stretched horizontally right?
Yes.
