1 left and 1 down

anonymous · Answer

I actually said that answer before and it was wrong :/

aum · Answer

y = |x|  and  y = |x + 7|
Replacing x by x+7 in the first equation will result in the second equation.
This is equivalent to moving the first graph to the LEFT by 7 units.

 y = |x| and  y = |x - 1| - 1?
x is being replaced by x-1  and  a -1 added at the end.
Move RIGHT by 1 unit and DOWN by 1 unit.
