Which of the following graphs shows the preimage p(x)=x^2 and the image i(x)=p(1/3x)?

(See explanation and attachment below)

Step-by-step explanation:

The image is equal to:

Which means that , that is, a scale factor is applied to preimage in order to diminish growth rate of parabola at same values of x.

Some values of P(x) and I(x) are presented below:

    x                    P(x)                I(x)

    0                     0                   0

     1                     1                   1/9

     2                    4                  4/9

     3                    9                    1

The following image corresponds to both functions.
