The graph of y = |x| is scaled vertically by a factor 7/2 What is the eqaution of the new graph?

Answer:
Option (D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Parent function has been given as y = |x|
If the given absolute value function is scaled vertically or vertically stretched by a scale factor = k
where k ≥ 1
Then the dilated figure will be,
y = k|x|
Following the same rule,
for k = [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
Equation of the new graph will be,
y = [tex]\frac{7}{2}|x|[/tex]
Therefore, Option (D) will be the answer.
