Question

Please help!!! Which function is a horizontal compression of its parent function f(x)=x^7 by a factor of 4

Answer 1

we are given

$f(x)=x^7$

Horizontal Compression:

Suppose, we want to compress a function f(x) horizontally by 'a' units

so, we can replace x as ax

f(x)---->f(ax)

Here, it is compressed horizontally by 4 units

so, we can replace x as 4x

so, we get

$f(4x)=(4x)^7$

so,

$r(x)=(4x)^7$.............Answer
