If you vertically compress the absolute value parent function, f(x) = [ 41, by a factor of 5, what is the equation of the new function?
A. g(x) = 1/5 |x|
B. g(x) = |x - 5|
C. g(x) = |5x|
D. g(x) = 5|x|

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Vertically compressed

Compression Factor = 5

Required

Find the equation of the new function;

Let the new function be represented by g(x)

Let c represented the compression factor;

such that c = 5

When a function f(x) is vertically compressed by factor c, the new function becomes

From properties of functions;

This implies that

Recall that and c = 5

Hence, the new function is

17   x 256=4352

sorry if this is wrong, i'm new.

step-by-step explanation:

look at the picture.

y-intercept for the function on a picture is 4 → point (0, 4).

y-intercept for the function

is for x = 0. substitute:

y-intercept is 8 → point (0, 8).
