The given graph represents a horizontal dilation by scale factor k to the graph of a parent function. Consider the point (2,1)
in the given graph. Compare this point to its corresponding point on the graph of its parent function. What transformation occurred?
Option #1: a horizontal stretch, k=2
Option #2: a horizontal compression, k=2
Option #3: a horizontal stretch, k=12
Option #4: a horizontal compression, k=12

Option #1.
The parent |x| has the point (1,1). In the given graph that point is at (2,1), so x-values are doubled. That's a horizontal stretch by factor k = 2 (y = |x/2|).
