Question

Write an equation for each translation of y=IxI 15.5 units down

Answer 1

To make the Absolute Value Graph translate down 15.5 units, you subtract 15.5 from the equation as seen here --> y=|x|-15.5

If y=|x|+(n) then translate up (n) units
If y=|x|-(n) then translate down (n) units
If y=|x-(n)| then translate right (n) units
If y=|x+(n)| then translate left (n) units

These can be added together, so for instance you could have
`y=|x-(n_(1))+(n_(2))`
