Answer:

The new function g(x) is steeper than f(x) and shifted to the left 13 units.

Explanation:

Given

[tex]g(x) = 12f(x - 13)[/tex]

Required

Determine the relationship between f(x) and g(x)

First, we need to determine the direction which f(x) is shifted to (right or left)

For a function f(x)

f(x - h) implies that f(x) is shifted right by h units

So, f(x - 13) implies that f(x) is shifted right by 13 units

Next, we determine the steepness of f(x) and g(x)

We can assume that the steepness of f(x) is 1

The steepness of g(x) can be determined as follows:

[tex]g(x) = 12f(x - 13)[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = 12 * f(x - 13)[/tex]

Hence, the steepness of g(x) is 12

Going by the analysis above:

g(x) is steeper and f(x) is shifted 13 units right to get g(x)
