Step-by-step explanation:
If we use a graphing tool or calculator we can easily verify your expresions.
f(x) = x^2
g(x) = 1/(2f(x))
h(x) = (1/2)*f(x)
f(x) and h(x) differ only in their gain.
g(x) tends to zero as x tends to ±∞

Answer with explanation:
We are given a function f(x) in terms of variable x as:
[tex]f(x)=x^2[/tex]
- We know that a transformation of a parent function f(x) of the type:
f(x) → a f(x)
is either a vertical stretch or a shrink depending on a.
If a>1 then the transformation is a vertical stretch and if a<1 then it is a vertical squeeze.
- Also, the transformation of the type:
f(x) → f(ax)
is a horizontal stretch if a<1 and a horizontal shrink if a>1.
- Here we have:
[tex]g(x)=\dfrac{1}{2}f(x)[/tex]
This means that the function g(x) is a vertical shrink of the parent function f(x) since a=1/2 <1
- Also, we can represent our function as:
[tex]g(x)=(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}x)^2[/tex]
This means that:
[tex]g(x)=f(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}x)[/tex]
Here we have: a=1/√2 <1
This means that it is a horizontal stretch.
