First change the 4

to 4

.
Then multiply 4

and 3

The answer would be D) or 14

in².
Answer:
Option (2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Parent function has been given as,
f(x) = 
When translated by 3 units left,
f(x + 3) = 
g(x) = 
If the translated function is stretched vertically by a scale factor = k
New function will be,
g'(x) = 
Since a point (1, 4) passes lies on the transformed function.
g'(1) = 
4 = 2k
k = 2
Therefore, transformed function represents the translation by 3 units in the negative side of the x-axis and stretched vertically by 2 units.
Option (2) will be the answer.
The answer is x equals 1/2.
2/9 is 32/144 in simplest form
