Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify</em>

f(x) = 1/4x

<u>Step 2: Evaluate</u>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em> [Function f(x)]:                                                                           f(-5) = 1/4(-5)
  2. Multiply:                                                                                                             f(-5) = -5/4
  3. Simplify:                                                                                                             f(-5) = -1 1/4

Suppose f(x) = x^2 and
SpyIntel [72]

Given:

The two functions are:

f(x)=x^2

g(x)=\left(\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)^2

To find:

The statement that best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x).

Solution:

The horizontal stretch is defined as:

g(x)=f(kx)            ...(i)

If 0, the function f(x) is horizontally stretched by factor \dfrac{1}{k}.

If k>1, the function f(x) is horizontally compressed by factor \dfrac{1}{k}.

We have,

f(x)=x^2

g(x)=\left(\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)^2

Using these functions, we get

g(x)=f\left(\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)         ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

k=\dfrac{1}{3}

Since 0, the function f(x) is horizontally stretched by factor \dfrac{1}{\frac{1}{3}}=3.

Hence, the correct option is D.
