Graph $y=\left|x\right|$. Then on the same screen graph $y=2\left|x\right|$, followed by $y=4\left|x\right|$, followed by

$y=\frac{1}{2}\left|x\right|$.What pattern do you observe? Can you predict the graph of$y=\frac{1}{4}\left|x\right|$? of$y=5\left|x\right|$

?

The given functions are

$$\begin{gathered} y=\left|x\right| \\ y=2\left|x\right| \\ y=4\left|x\right| \\ y=\frac{1}{2}\left|x\right| \\ y=\frac{1}{4}\left|x\right| \\ y=5\left|x\right| \end{gathered}$$

Plot the graph of the function$y=\left|x\right|$

Plot the graph of the function $y=2\left|x\right|$on the same Cartesian plane

graph of $y=2\left|x\right|$is equivalent to the vertically stretched graph of $y=\left|x\right|$by the factor $2$

Plot the graph of the function $y=4\left|x\right|$on the same Cartesian plane

graph of $y=4\left|x\right|$is equivalent to the vertically stretched graph of $y=\left|x\right|$by the factor$4$

Plot the graph of the function$y=\frac{1}{2}\left|x\right|$on the same Cartesian plane

graph of $y=\frac{1}{2}\left|x\right|$is equivalent to the vertically compressed graph of$y=\left|x\right|$by the factor$\frac{1}{2}$

Plot the graph of the function$y=\frac{1}{4}\left|x\right|$ on the same Cartesian plane

graph of $y=\frac{1}{4}\left|x\right|$is equivalent to the vertically compressed graph of$y=\left|x\right|$by the factor$\frac{1}{4}$

Plot the graph of the function$y=5\left|x\right|$ on the same Cartesian plane

graph of $y=5\left|x\right|$is equivalent to the vertically stretched graph of $y=\left|x\right|$by the factor$5$
