Question

What results only in horizontal compression of y=1/x by a factor of 6

Answer 1

Answer:  $f(x)=\frac{1}{6x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If a transformed function of f(x) is,

f(x) = a f[b(x-h)] + k

Then, b represents the horizontal compression ( When b > 1 ) or stretch ( when 0 < b < 1 )

Here, the given function is,

$f(x) =\frac{1}{6}$

Thus, the transformed function obtained by compressing f(x) by the scale factor of 6 is,

$h(x)=f(6x)=\frac{1}{6x}$

Answer 2

I'm assuming you mean a compression of factor 6 

In that case, it will be h = 1/6x
