Write an equation for the following transformation of y = x: a vertical compression by a factor of 1/2.
Options:
y = -1/2x
y = 1/2x
y = 2x
y = -2x
Please help me :)
The word "factor" should tell you that multiplication is involved. Hence,
y = (1/2)(x)
this is for Families of Function test
1. C each output for y=x-3 is 3 less than the corresponding output for y=z. The graph of y=x-3 is the graph y=x translated down 3 unit
2. B y=1/2x
3. B g(x)=-3x-2
4. D g(x)=5/4x
5. D the graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) translated to the left 7 units and up 9 unit
hope this helped y’all gn
ily all is correct!! Thank you!!!
i’m glad i could help !! :)
Well, well, well, looking for some equation fun, huh? I've got you covered! To perform a vertical compression by a factor of 1/2, we just need to squeeze the "y" values to half of their original size. So, the correct equation is y = 1/2x. Keep calm and solve on!
To find the equation for a vertical compression by a factor of 1/2, we need to multiply the original equation y = x by the compression factor 1/2.
Multiplying the equation y = x by 1/2 gives us:
y = (1/2)x
Therefore, the correct equation for the vertical compression by a factor of 1/2 is y = (1/2)x.
Out of the given options, the correct equation is y = (1/2)x.
