the domain and range? the x and y chart? parent graph? I wasn't in class when they filled it out, I had to take the quiz !

danjs · Answer

first isolate the absolute value part by itself

$$\left| x - b \right| = \frac{ c }{ a }$$

danjs · Answer

remember the absolute value will give you the positive distance, so (x-b) can be either positive or negative c / a

danjs · Answer

solve those 2 equations

danjs · Answer

x - b = c / a

or

x - b = -c / a
