Given f(x) = 1/4x^2 how did we transform from the parent function?
A) Vertical compression (wider)
B) Vertical stretch (narrow)
C) Vertical compression (wider) and reflection over x-axis
D) Vertical stretch (narrower) and reflection over x-axis
The transformation from the parent function f(x) = x^2 to f(x) = 1/4x^2 includes a vertical compression (wider).
Option A) Vertical compression (wider) is the correct answer.
