ANSWER:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given h(x) = -|x| as the transformation of the absolute value parent function, f(x) = |x|.

Note that if a function, say f(x) = x, is reflected accross the x-axis, the image will be a function f(x) = -x.

So if h(x) = -|x| is the transformation of the absolute value parent function, f(x) = |x|, then the graphs will be;
