Question

how do i describe the transformation from the parent function how would i describe the transformation from the parent function in y = 5| x |

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation of parent function:

A parent function is most basic version of an algebraic function.

The given function is,

`y=5|x|`

Here the parent function is |x|.

We have to transform |x| to 5|x|.

`\begin{gathered} y=a|x-h|+k \\ a=\text{ verticle stretched or compressed} \end{gathered}`

So, the given function is stretched vertically by 5 units.

The graph is given as,
