We are given
[tex]f(x)=cos(\frac{x}{2} )[/tex]
[tex]g(x)=cos(x )[/tex]
now, we can find relation between f(x) and g(x)
Since, g(x) is parent function
so, we get
[tex]f(x)=g(\frac{x}{2})[/tex]
Since, there is change in x as x/2
so, x is divide by 2
So, it is horizontal stretch by 2 units..........Answer
The transformations required to obtain the graph of the function f(x) from the graph of the function g(x) are by stretching the function g(x) horizontally by 2.
What is a Function?
A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set.
Given to us
[tex]g(x) = cos(x)[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = cos(\dfrac{x}{2})[/tex]
We know that g(x) is the parent function of f(x), therefore, we can write
[tex]f(x) = g(\dfrac{x}{2})[/tex]
Checking the function,
g(x) = cos x
substituting the value of x as
[tex]\dfrac{x}{2}[/tex]
we get,
[tex]g(\dfrac{x}{2}) = cos(\dfrac{x}{2})[/tex]
Hence, the transformations required to obtain the graph of the function f(x) from the graph of the function g(x) are by stretching the function g(x) horizontally by 2.
