Question

Let f(x)=6x. The graph of f(x) is transformed into the graph of g(x) by a vertical compression of 1/3 and a translation of 2 units up.
What is an equation for g(x)?


Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

K so a translation of 2 units up is just adding 2 to the end of the equation, and a vertical compression of 1/3 means dividing the slope by 3:
so your equation goes from

f(x)=6x (compresses to)
2x (add 2 for the translation)
g(x)=2x+2

Hope this helped.
