One jug of powdered plant food treats an area of 135 square feet of flowers. How many jugs would be needed to treat an area of 165 square yards? One jug of powdered plant food treats an area of 135 square feet of flowers. How many jugs would be needed to treat an area of 165 square yards?

this may not be at all, but i use the same website you're using for school, and if i'm stuck doing one of these i try to look for it on the section.

let f (x ) is a function and c be a positive real number,   the graph of the function g (x ) = f (cx ) is represented as follows.

when, c > 1,   the function compresses it in the x - direction.

when, 0 < c < 1, the function stretches it.

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2.

the heighest power of x in g ( x ) = (9x )2 is 2, so the parent function is square function.

the equation of parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2 and the parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

so, the functions f and g have the following relationship.

g ( x ) = f ( 9x ).

compare the function g ( x ) = f ( 9x ) with g (x ) = f (cx ).

c = 9 ( > 1 ).

so, the function g (x ) = (9x )2 compresses it in the x - direction.
