Compression by a factor of ? |
2001-01-12 |
|
From Wayne: Given an equation like y = (1/2) (x-3)2 + 6, when describing the distortion from the base curve y = x2 is it correct to say there is a vertical compression by a factor of 2, or by a factor of 1/2 ? Which is more correct? I have seen both versions in different high school texts, and I am now unsure which is more correct. Answered by Harley Weston. |
