Question

Which of the following functions shows the absolute value parent function f(x)=|x| vertically compressed

Answer 1

The answer is the option A, which is: A. $G(x)= \frac{1}{4}|x|$

 The explanation for this problem is shown below:

1. The compressing of this functions is defined by the function $y=a|x|$

Where $a$ is the constant and it must be: $a$

2. As you can see, the only constant that is less than one is the constant of the first function $G(x)=\frac{1}{4}|x|$, where $a=\frac{1}{4}$
