Question

Suppose that F(x) = x3 and G(x) = -5x3. Which statement best compares the

graph of G(x) with the graph of F(x)?
O
A. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) flipped over the x-axis and
stretched vertically.
O
B. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) flipped over the x-axis and
compressed vertically.
O
C. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) flipped over the y-axis and
compressed vertically.
O
D. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) flipped over the yaxis and
stretched vertically.

Answer 1

Explanation:

That negative sign in G(x) flips the graph about the x-axis. The coefficient 5 stretches the graph vertically. Thus, Answer A is correct.
