Question

Write an equation for each translation of .

5.5 units right



y = | x | – 5.5


y = | x + 5.5 |


y = | x | + 5.5


y = | x – 5.5 |

Answer 1

y = |x - 5.5|

Explanation:

y = f(x) + n - moves the graph n units up

y = f(x) - n - moves the graph n units down

y = f(x + n) - moves the graph n units to the left

y = f(x - n) - moves the graph n units to the right

===================================================

5.5 units to the right

y = f(x - 5.5) = |x - 5.5|
