Transformations of Linear and Absolute Value Functions

Question

f(x) = ∣2x ∣ + 4; horizontal shrink by a factor of 1

—2

Answer 1

I'm going to assume you mean a horizontal shrink factor or 1/2.

Horizontal factors are opposite of what you think they are so a shrink factor of 1/2 is actually the "horizontal variable" (which is "x" multiplied by 2. So the answer is f(x) = |4x| + 4
