Question

how would you graph the absolute value equation.
y=-[2x+3]

Answer 1

its appears to be linear

Answer 2

would it start at -5 going up or down. or 5 going up or down?

Answer 3

where did the 5 come from?

Answer 4

does [ ] mean absolute value?

Answer 5

i have 4 answers and thats how the graphs start.

Answer 6

their like v graphs

Answer 7

y= |x| ... y only has positive values so it will be a ‘V’ at the origin

Answer 8

that graph is not right

Answer 9

y = 2|x| will be a sharper V

Answer 10

y= -2|x| will be the mirror image ^

Answer 11

y=-2|x| + k will be translated(moved) along the y axis by k

Answer 12

y= -2|x-h| will be translated along the x-axis by h
