Question

Which best describes how the graph of g(x) = radical 25/9x

relates to the graph of the parent function, f(x)= radical x?

Answer 1

Answer: g(x) = radical 25/9x would be clearer if written as g(x) = radical (25/9)x. Note that radical (25/9) = (5/3).

The graph of g(x) = radical (25/9)x would have the same shape as that of g(x) = radical x EXCEPT that it would be stretched vertically by a factor of (5/3).
