Question

You are given the exponential function g(x)=4^-x. Which option below gives the formula for a new function h created by shrinking g by a factor of 2 along the y-axis?

Answer 1

Thank you for asking this question. Here is your answer:

This is the concept of algebra, given that the exponential function g(x)=4-x was shrunk by a factor 2 along the y-axis, the new size will be given by:

2[h(x)=4-x]

h(x)=2(4-x)

Thus, the new expression for the function is given by h(x)=2(4-x)
