Question

The area  of a square is given by A equals s squared, where s is a side length of the square. How does the graph of the function change when you double the side length of the square?

  1. Vertical stretch with k equals 2
  2. Vertical compression with k equals 2
  3. Horizontal compression with k equals 2
  4. Horizontal stretch with k equals 2

The correct answer is: Horizontal compression with k equals 2


    Given function A equals f left parenthesis s right parenthesis equals s squared
    When the side of the square is doubled then the new function becomes A to the power of straight prime equals g left parenthesis s right parenthesis equals f left parenthesis 2 s right parenthesis equals left parenthesis 2 s right parenthesis squared
    The new function is horizontal compression with k equals 2 greater than 1
