ANSWER FAST PLS IM DUMB AND IT'S TIMED

Which equation represents the function graphed on the coordinate plane?

g(x) = |x – 4| – 10
g(x) = |x + 4| – 10
g(x) = |x – 10| + 4
g(x) = |x + 10| – 4

Answer 1

Explanation:

The graph shows that the vertex is 10 units below the x axis. That makes only A and B possible.

The value that turns abs(x + a) to the left side is 4 because the vertex is at minus 4. To get the vertex to go to x= -4 is when a = 4.

So the answer is y = abs(x + 4) - 10. What happens inside the brackets is a bit anti intuitive. Just remember that to move left requires a plus value for "a" and to move right requires a minus "a".
