hey guys i have a question here,if g(x)=x^2 undergo horizontal stretch of factor 2 followed by translation( -2, 0) what will the final transformed equation be?

should be (0.5(x+2))^2

#

iirc transformations related to x are all "reversed", so scale factor 2 becomes coefficient 0.5 and translation 2 to the left becomes +2

#

Neat way of visualising this by thinking of the line y=x and applying the transformations
