The function f(x) undergoes a dilation to become g(x).


The graph of square root function F of X starts at (2, 4), passes through (6, 6), & continues to the right & up toward infinity. The graph of square root function G of X starts at (2, negative four thirds), passes through (6, negative 2), & continues to the right & down toward negative infinity.

The function rule for f(x) is f(x)=x−2−−−−−√+4.
What is the function rule for g(x)?

g(x)=−3x−2−−−−−−−√+4

g(x)=−1/3x−2−−−−−√−4/3

g(x)=−1/3x−2−−−−−−−√+4

g(x)=−3x−2−−−−−√−12

both the problem and the proposed solution are unreadable rubbish.

The correct answer is g(x)=−1/3x−2−−−−−−−√+4.
