Question

The graph of F(x), shown below, resembles the graph of G(X) = x2, but it hasbeen changed somewhat. Which of the following could be the equation ofF(x)?600 = x2FUO = ?O. A. F(x) = 0.272 - 3B. F(x) = -x2 - 3C. F(x) = 2x2 - 3D. F(X) = 32 - 3

Answer 1

You have G(x) = x².

take into account that G(x) can be considered as an streched of the F(X), moreover, F(x) is a translation of G(x) downward 3 units. If G(x) is an strech of F(x), then, G(x) is multipled by a constant lower than 1.

Then, based on the previous considerations, you have that the form of F(x) is:

F(x) = 0.2x² - 3
