Answer:

1/6x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

"Simplify" generally means, "eliminate parentheses and combine like terms." In general, parentheses are eliminated by making use of the distributive property.

$\dfrac{2}{3}x-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}x+1\right)=\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{1}{2}x-1=\left(\dfrac{2}{3}-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)x-1\\\\=\left(\dfrac{4}{6}-\dfrac{3}{6}\right)x-1=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{6}x-1}$

Answer:

The graph of g(x) is wider.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parent function:

$f(x)=x^2$

New function:

$g(x)=\left(\dfrac{1}{2}x\right)^2=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2$

Transformations:

For a > 0

$f(x)+a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units up}$

$f(x)-a \implies f(x) \: \textsf{translated}\:a\:\textsf{units down}$

$\begin{aligned} y =a\:f(x) \implies & f(x) \: \textsf{stretched/compressed vertically by a factor of}\:a\\ & \textsf{If }a > 1 \textsf{ it is stretched by a factor of}\: a\\ & \textsf{If }0 < a < 1 \textsf{ it is compressed by a factor of}\: a\\\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned} y=f(ax) \implies & f(x) \: \textsf{stretched/compressed horizontally by a factor of} \: a\\& \textsf{If }a > 1 \textsf{ it is compressed by a factor of}\: a\\ & \textsf{If }0 < a < 1 \textsf{ it is stretched by a factor of}\: a\\\end{aligned}$
