Question

A company’s logo is modelled by the function f left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals negative vertical line x vertical line plus 3. For a new design, the company wants the logo to be narrower toward the x minus text  axis  end text. Find the function for the new logo.

  1. 1 half left parenthesis 3 minus vertical line x vertical line right parenthesis
  2. 2 left parenthesis 3 minus vertical line x vertical line right parenthesis
  3. 2 left parenthesis vertical line x vertical line plus 3 right parenthesis
  4. 1 half left parenthesis vertical line x vertical line plus 3 right parenthesis

The correct answer is: 1 half left parenthesis 3 minus vertical line x vertical line right parenthesis


    To make the logo narrower towards the x minus text  axis  end text, then the function must be vertically compressed
    g left parenthesis x right parenthesis equals k f left parenthesis x right parenthesis text  for  end text 0 less than vertical line k vertical line less than 1
    So, the correct function is 1 half left parenthesis 3 minus vertical line x vertical line right parenthesis, where k equals 1 half less than 1.
