Question

Suppose that F(x) = x² and G(x) = 3x^2 + 8. 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 and
shifted 8 units to the left.

B. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) compressed vertically and
shifted 8 units to the left.

C. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) compressed vertically and
shifted 8 units up.

D. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) stretched vertically and
shifted 8 units up.

Answer 1

The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) stretched vertically and shifted 8 units up.
