Answer 1

To perform a horizontal stretch you have to multiply the x-term of the function by the factor.

`f(bx)`

Where b is the stretch factor and its value must be 0 ≤ b ≤ 1

So, to stretch the function f(x)=x² you have to divide the x-term of the function by 4 or multiply it by its inverse 1/4:

`\begin{gathered} g(x)=f((1)/(4)x) \\ g(x)=((1)/(4)x)^2 \end{gathered}`

The correct option is B.
