Answer 5

So you know your original function, \(y=|x|\) looks like

Answer 6

Now what's happening to it is it is moving, and stretching.

Let's analyze \(y=|x|-2\) Since the value is outside the absolute value sign and not INSIDE it, that means it directly affects the function along the Y-AXIS, meaning it moves down 2 units.

Answer 7

yayy i got i right?

Answer 8

what about the 1/3 part?

Answer 9

Lastly, if it's a number less than 1, it will stretch. more than one it will shrink. therefore what do you think is happening to our graph that is now shifted down 2 units?

Answer 10

shrinking because it is negative?

Answer 11

Not quite, \[y=\color{red}{\frac{1}{3}}|x|-2\] this is not negative, nor shrinking because it is less than 1.

Answer 12

ohhh i thought that but i had already said shrinking.... XD so it is C right?

Answer 13

Is graph C shifted UP two units or DOWN two units?

Answer 14

up?

Answer 15

Yes, and your function is negative, so does that mean it is shifted UP 2 units or DOWN 2 units?

Answer 16

down 2 units?

Answer 17

by negative, I mean \(y=\frac{1}{3}|x|\color{red}{-2}\)

Yes, down 2 units.

Therefore it cannot be answer choice C. cross that option out.

Answer 18

Its D!

Answer 19

Same with B. your function IS NOT shifted up 2 units, so B wont work either.

Answer 20

Yes good, you got it :)

Answer 21

yay! i had a feeling it was D from the beginning :D

Answer 22

Thank you so much!

Answer 23
