If you horizontally compress the exponential function f(x)2^x by a factor of 5, whats the answer?

Sagot :

It will be useful to remember the following transformations on functions:

The table uses the function x², but we can apply the concept to our case.

Now, for our question we have the following function:

[tex]f(x)=2^x[/tex]

So, looking at the table, we see that a horizontally compress with factor a = 5 will produce the following function:

[tex]f(x)=2^{5x}[/tex]
