What is the y-coordinate of the vertex of y = |–3x + 6| + 2 ? A. –2 B. 0 C. 1 D. 2 I'm getting -18. Your suppose to plugin in 0 for x then plugin what you got to get y. right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Hint: y = a|x-h| + k has the vertex (h,k)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh...?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

example y = 2|x-3| + 5 is in the form y = a|x-h| + k so the vertex of y = 2|x-3| + 5 is (3,5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that would be be y=5?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes correct

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so use this example to answer this question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer to my question is 2

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lmao this online algebra class is badly taught then

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hmm that's unfortunate, but I'm glad it's making sense now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks
