The graph of the transformation of f(x) to f(b·x), where f(1) in f(b·x) is equal to f(5) in f(x) indicates that the value of <em>b </em>is 5
<h3>What is the transformation of a function?</h3>
The transformation of a function is represented by a function that changes one function into another function, such that the size, or position of the graph of the original function is modified
The given transformation of the function <em>f</em> is f(b·x)
A formula for the transformation of a function <em>y</em> = f(x) is the function;
y = a·f(b(x + c)) + d
Where;
The <em>a</em> indicates a vertical translation of the function
<em>b</em> indicates an horizontal dilation of <em>f</em>
<em>c</em> stands for a horizontal translation
<em>d</em> stands for a vertical translation
The translation in the question is f(b·x), which is a horizontal dilation, is expressed as follows;
When <em>b</em> > 1, the graph of f(x) shrinks horizontally
When 0 < b < 1, the graph of f(x) is stretched
At <em>x</em> = 1, f(x) = 1, and f(b·x) = 5
The graph of f(x) shrinks to obtain the graph of f(b·x), such that the value obtained at f(5) in f(x) is obtained at f(1) in f(b·x)
f(5) = f(b·1)
b×1 = 5
b = 5 ÷ 1 = 5
The value of <em>b</em> is 5
