Question

F(x)=3x^2+2 the quadratic function g(x) is the function f(x) stretched vertically by a factor of 4. Enter the equation of g(x) in the box

Answer 1

Answer:

g(x) = 12*x^2 + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

For a function f(x), a vertical stretch of scale factor k is defined as:

g(x) = k*f(x)

In this case, we know that f(x) = 3*x^2 + 2

And the function g(x) is the function f(x) vertically stretched by a factor of 4, then we have k = 4

and:

g(x) = 4*f(x)

Replacing by the actual function, we get

g(x) = 4*(3*x^2 + 2)

g(x) = 4*3*x^2 + 4*2

g(x) = 12*x^2 + 8
