Final answer:
The type of transformation applied to the graph of f(x) to produce the graph of g(x) is horizontal compression.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is horizontal compression (B).
When a graph is horizontally compressed, it means that the graph is being shrunk horizontally. This happens when the value in the function that determines the x-value is multiplied by a number greater than 1. In this case, the graph of f(x) has been compressed horizontally to produce the graph of g(x).
