Question

The graph shows the function f(x) = |x – h| + k. What is the value of k? k = –2.5 k = –1 k = 1 k = 2.5

Answer 1

k= - 2.5

Explanation:

If the graph is the attached picture then according to this:

The graph is in V- shape. So if the corners of the graph are not at (0,0) than there must be a constant.

k is the constant which means that it is the amount the function is vertically shifted. The graph is shifted 2.5 units down, therefore the value of k is -2.5.

Thus option 1 is correct....
