Can anyone please help me with these questions?? 1. What is the
quadratic parent
function?

2. What is the absolute value parent function?

3. What is the reciprocal function?

1: The parent function of the quadratic family is f(x) = x2. A transformation of the graph of the parent function is represented by the function g(x) = a(x − h)2 + k, where a ≠ 0.

2:The absolute value function is defined by f (x) = |x|. This is the absolute value parent function. The graph of y = a|x| is graph of y = |x| vertically stretched or compressed depending on the |a|.

3:Reciprocal functions are functions that have a constant on their denominator and a polynomial on their denominator. The reciprocal of a function, , can be determined by finding the expression for 1 f ( x ) . We can graph a reciprocal function using the function's table of values and transforming the graph of y = 1 x .
