Solution

The correct answer is A. The function is increasing when x > 0.

Here's why:

The absolute value parent function is defined as f(x) = |x|. This function creates a V-shaped graph that opens upwards.

For x < 0, the function is decreasing because as x becomes more negative, the output (or y-value) also becomes more negative.

However, for x > 0, the function is increasing. As x becomes more positive, the output (or y-value) also becomes more positive.

Therefore, the statement "The function is increasing when x > 0" best describes the absolute value parent function.
