Transforming the graph of a function by shrinking or stretchingGraph (a)

ANSWER
EXPLANATION
If g(x) is the transformation of f(x) as follows,
[tex]g(x)=f(ax)[/tex]Then g(x) is a horizontal compression (if a > 1) or stretch (if a < 1) of f(x). The rule to map each point is,
[tex](x,y)\to(x/a,y)[/tex]In this case, this is a stretch so the point (-2, 2) maps to the point (-4, 2) and the origin is the same. Join these two points with a line and we get the graph of f(¹/₂x).
