Question

What is the equation that represents the graph below?

Answer 1

Here's the Graph

Answer 2

that an absolute value graph

Answer 3

shifted to left 3 units and up 2 unites

Answer 4

so the parenting function is f(x)=|x|

Answer 5

how do we write shift to right?

Answer 6

f(x)=|x+3| right?

Answer 7

now try to think of the shift upwards what do we need to add

Answer 8

Side note: it's also being compressed horizontally.

Answer 9

I couldn't tell just looking at it, but I would agree!
f(x)=a|x+3|+2
if it is compressed then you need to find a

Answer 10

Brandy don't wait there for an answer! you won't learn that way

Answer 11

Oh no I'm not I'm just trying to understand

Answer 12

so summarize what you understand

Answer 13

So I understand how it is shifted and I understand that we need to find a but I'm not sure how I can find a.

Answer 14

yes just plug in a value of x from the graph you should be able to find a

Answer 15

okay! thank you so much!

Answer 16

no problem
