Question

What is the absolute value equation for this graph

y = -|x + 2| + 4
y = -|x + 2| - 4
y = -|x - 2] + 4
y = -|x - 2| - 4 ​

Answer 1

y = -|x - 2| + 4

Explanation:

The parent function of the absolute value function is y = |x|. There is a negative reflection in the x-axis, a horizontal translation of 2 units right, and a vertical translation of 4 units up.
