Solution:

Given the absolute value parent function below

[tex]f(x)=|x|[/tex]

If the function is vertically compressed by a factor of 4, the function becomes

[tex]g(x)=\frac{1}{4}f(x)[/tex]

Where

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=|x| \\ g(x)=\frac{1}{4}|x| \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the answer is

[tex]g(x)=\frac{1}{4}\lvert x\rvert[/tex]
