Hello!

The first thing that we have to do is draw the graphs of function f(x) = x and g(x) = 1/3x - 2.

Below, we have the graph of f(x) in blue, and the graph of g(x) in red.

Let's analyze the two graphs:

• g(x) is less steep than f(x)

,

• the y-intercept has been shifted down.

,

So, the right alternative is B.

X-The linear parent function, A(x) = x, is transformed to g(x) = { * - 2. Whichstatement-example-1
