Question

For the following equation:
f(x)=2|x+2|+8

how do you know if the graph is wider, narrower, or the same width as the graph of y=|x|

Answer 1

I think it depends on the factor outside

Answer 2

the slope (2) is greater than 1 as in the case of y = |x|

Answer 3

so if the slope is bigger then 1, its wider, and if its smaller, then its narrower

Answer 4

you are comparing two graphs. The one with the bigger slope is narrower.

Answer 5

so in this case, 2 is bigger than 1. therefore its narrower. righttttt

Answer 6

Yeah
