What effect does changing the function f(x)=1/2 sin(x)+2 to the function g(x)= 2 sin(x)+8 have on the graph of f(x)?

The graph is vertically stretched by a factor of 4 and shifted up 6 units.

The graph is horizontally stretched by a factor of 6 and shifted up 4 units.

The graph is vertically stretched by a factor of 6 and shifted up 4 units.

The graph is horizontally stretched by a factor of 4 and shifted up 6 units.

Respuesta :

g(x) = 4f(x)

The graph is vertically stretched by a factor of 4.

None of the offered choices is correct.

Whoever wrote your answer key probably claims the first choice to be correct. It is not correct. If you were to compute g(x) = 4*f(x) +6, you would get
.. g(x) = 2sin(x) +14
which is not the g(x) that is part of the problem statement.
