Answer:
Yes. The graph of the parent function has been dilated by a scale factor other than 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the parent function of the absolute value function is,
f(x) = |x|
This function passes through (0, 0) and slope = 1 or -1.
After transformation vertex (0, 0) becomes (-2, 3) and a point through which this function passes through is (-1, 0)
Slope of the function = [tex]\frac{3-0}{-2+1}[/tex]
= -3
Since slope of the transformed function is less than the parent function. (-3 < -1)
Therefore, parent function will be dilated by a scale factor other than 1.
