If you vertically stretch the square root parent function, F(x)=√x, by four

units, what is the equation of the new function?
OA. G(x) = 4√√x
OB. G(x)=√x - 4
OC. G(x) = √4x
OD. G(x)=√x+4

Answer:

Hope this helps ;)

Explanation:

If you stretch the square root function F(x)=√x vertically by four units, the new function can be represented by the equation:

G(x) = 4 * √x

This can be written as:

G(x) = 2 * √(2x)

Alternatively, you can write the equation as:

G(x) = √(4x)

Either way, the vertical stretch of the square root function by four units is given by the equation G(x) = 4 * √x or G(x) = 2 * √(2x) or G(x) = √(4x).
