Which inequality is graphed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y < |x + 3| – 3 y < – |x + 3| – 3 y < – |x – 3| + 3 y > |x – 3| + 3

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Well, it's upside down so we know it is either choice 2 or choice 3. Do you agree?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah... i think

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Because those two have negative signs in front of them.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

And since it is moved 3 left and 3 down, it must be choice 2

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

the graph has moved down 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. that's what i was thinking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok... still dont get it

OpenStudy (mertsj):

The -3 on the end moves it 3 down

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Then it says |x+3| Think of that as |x-(-3)|. So it is moves 3 to the left.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ook. i think i get it.. thanks
