Which best describes how the graph of g(x) =1/9sqrt(x) relates to the graph of the parent function, f(x) =sqrt(x) ? The graph of

g(x) is shrunk vertically by a factor of 1/9. The graph of g(x) is stretched vertically by a factor of 1/9. The graph of g(x) is shrunk vertically by a factor of 1/3. The graph of g(x) is stretched vertically by a factor of 1/3.

Answer:

The graph g(x) is vertically shrunk by a factor of 1/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parent Graph: f(x) = a√(bx - c) + d

Since we are only modifying <em>a</em>, we are dealing with vertical shrink (a < 1) and stretch (a > 1). Since 1/9 < 1, we have a vertical shrink by a factor of 1/9.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

That coefficient (1/9) shrinks the graph vertically

The first answer is the correct one: "The graph of g(x) is shrunk vertically by a factor of 1/9."
