Question

what is the graph of the absolute value equation y=-2|x|+5?

Answer 1

The parent points are reflected over the x-axis, vertically stretched by 2, and shifted up 5 spaces.

(-2,2) --> (-2,-1)
(-1,1) --> (-1,3)
(0,0) --> (0,5)
(1,1) --> (1,3)
(2,2) --> (2,-1)

(((remember a vertical stretch just means to multiply the point's y-value by 2)))

Hope this helped!
