Question

Graph this equation Y = IxI – 3

Answer 1

ok this is different than slope intercept.
here, i coudl teach you graph transformations but that would A) take too long and B) if you don't know how to do slope itnercept, i doubt you'd be able to udnerstand transformations

so my advice to graph this?
pick and choose x values, plug it in, then graph whatever you get for y.

Answer 2

You just have to graph the absolute value, but begin from Y=-3 and not from usually start Y=0.
