Question

Which inequality is graphed?
y > |x + 4| – 2

y < |x – 4| – 2

y > |x + 4| + 2

y < |x – 4| + 2

Answer 1

what is the rule about inequality? do you know it?

Answer 2

No.

Answer 3

okay,
Rule #1: Inequalities that are grater than or equal to, shade up,
Rule #2: Inequalities that are less than or equal to shade down.
Have you solved any of the equations?

Answer 4

I don't know how :c

Answer 5

How come you have these problems than?

Answer 6

I do online school. So they just give me random questions

Answer 7

ahh, so your homeschooled?

Answer 8

Unfortunately!

Answer 9

There is nothing wrong with being homeschooled, except maybe your social life. :] im homwschooled too. lol. anyy wayyy.

Answer 10

Ohhhhhhh. Well I'm not used to it! Lol. I just started this year, it's my like second week. I went to public school all my life so it's a big adjustment.

Answer 11

same here

I am doing the Life of Fred math series, you should try it. :].

Answer 12

ok, do you know about absolute values?

Answer 13

Yes

Answer 14

So then make then abosolutes and solve.

Answer 15

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat

Confused

Answer 16

absolute value = |x+4|

Answer 17

I think I figured it out, I had to set the absolute value to equal zero in which I found the vertex, which is 2, 4

Answer 18

but when you absolute the vaule, it becomes a positive number, and 0 is neither positive nor negative, :/

Answer 19

That's what my teacher told me to do D:

Answer 20

Wtf

Answer 21

The vertex of that given graph is (4,2)

Answer 22

The vertex of y = a|x-h| + k is (h,k)

Answer 23

jim, im a freshman, in honours algebra, and that makes no sense. lol

Answer 24

Algebra 1?

Answer 25

y = a|x-h| + k is the general form of an absolute value equation

Answer 26

And the vertex is (h,k)

Answer 27

Ex:

y = a|x-h| + k

Let a = 2, h = 3 and k = 5 to get

y = 2|x-3|+5

The vertex of y = 2|x-3|+5 is (3,5)
