NEED HELP ASAP PLEASE!! The graph of F(x), shown below, resembles the graph of G(x) = x2, but it has been stretched and shifted. Which of the following could be the equation of
Fx)?
10
G(X) = x2
10
Fx) = ?

D. F(x) = ( (1/5)x)^2 - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard transformation with a stretch and a shift is

F(x) = f(x/b) + k

The red curve has a vertex at (0,-4), and cuts the x-axis at (10,0)

That means that before the vertical shift (of k=-4), the vertex was at (0,0), and the curves passes through (10,4).

Substituting in the equation

F(10) = (10/b)^2 -4 = 0

solve for b

(10/b)^2-4 = 0

(10/b)= sqrt(4) = 2

b = 10/2 = 5

Therefore the transformation equation is

F(x) = (x/5)^2-4

The answer is

F(x) = ( (1/5)x)^2 - 4
