math help http://prntscr.com/iyaypv

Aureo:

Alright so this will be 1/5 of the f(x) graph because it literally says that f(x) = x^2 and g(x) is (1/5x)^2. I'm not too sure how to help you to this problem as they do not give you any other information, unless there is more outside of the screenshot. Is there?

trashhh:

the rest of the screen is just a graph because i have to graph it as a parabola

Aureo:

Alright. So since this is 1/5 of f(x), it's going to be 5x more spaced out. Does this make sense?

trashhh:

but i dont know how to graph it

Aureo:

Alright. So if y=1 on f(x), what does x =?

Aureo:

I'm going to help you through this.

trashhh:

5?

Aureo:

That would be what it would be on g(x)

Aureo:

On your graph, f(x), when y=1 x also = 1

Aureo:

Since the 1/5 is right next to the x, it gets applied to the horizontal axis (x)

trashhh:

im still confused on where to put the point

Aureo:

Aureo:

That is the g(x) graph.

Aureo:

The point (vertex) will stay where it is

Aureo:

The second point will be placed on (5,1), since g(x) is spaced out 5x more than f(x)

trashhh:

http://prntscr.com/iyb3a1 like that?

Aureo:

Exactly

trashhh:

thank you so much

Aureo:

Np, have a good day!
