Do you know what the graph y=absolute value of x
looks like?
OpenStudy (dannyo19):
Do you need to graph it or describe it without graphing?

i have to choose one of those four
OpenStudy (susanna):
The graph of y=|x-5|-4 looks like a V, with the bottom point (5, -4)
OpenStudy (elvisiscool69):
how do you know if you dont mind me asking
OpenStudy (susanna):
I know how the parent function looks --> y=|x| --> a V with the bottom point at the origin (0,0). Then it was translated 5 units to the RIGHT (-5 part), and 4 units down (-4 part).
OpenStudy (elvisiscool69):
so is it (-5,-4) or (5,-4)

it's (5,-4)
because from (0,0) you moved 5 to the RIGHT and 4 down (into the negative).
OpenStudy (elvisiscool69):
