Question 8 of 10 Suppose f(x) = x2 and g(x)= Which statement best compares the
graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x)?
O A. The graph of g(x) is the graph of Ax) shifted units left.
O B. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) horizontally stretched by a
factor of 5.
O c. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) vertically stretched by a
factor of 5.
O D. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) horizontally compressed by a
factor of 5.

  B. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) horizontally stretched by a factor of 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacing x by x/5 in a function causes its graph to be stretched horizontally by a factor of 5. This is because x must be 5 times as large in order for the function argument to be the same.
