Question

On a separate sheet of paper, use the graph of y = |x| to graph Y+4 - 1x. In the answer box, explain how the new graphdiffers from the parent function.

Answer 1

Lets first remenber the graph of the modular function y=|x|, as showed below:

Now lets plot the graph for y+4=|x|, or, y=|x| -4 :

We can see that the graph suffered a translation in the Y axes by -4.
