is this right? Choose the equation of the graph shown below: https://media.glynlyon.com/g_alg01_2013/3/absvalue25.gif y = |x - 1| - 3<-- i chose this y = |x + 1| - 3 y = |x - 1| + 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not a good choice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is confusing, but the \(+1\) inside the absolute value is the one that moves it to the LEFT one unit

OpenStudy (ttop0816):

ohhhhhhh so it would be y = |x + 1| - 3 right...? (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, that is the right one
