Answer 3

he beat me to it lol :D

Answer 4

I see, and what if it was \[y=\left| x+2 \right|\]?

Answer 5

It is /x/ just shifted 2 units horizontally to the left

Answer 6

why horizontally?
Also should it go right?

Answer 7

is there any way to explain this, or it is just a "definition"

Answer 8

It works the opposite way...when there's a + inside the function, then we move it to the left.

Answer 9

look...when x = -2, the y = 0
