Question

Which of the following equations is the translation 2 units down of the graph of y = |x |?

a.) y = | x - 2|
b.) y = | x + 2|
c.) y = | x | + 2
d.) y = | x | - 2

Answer 1

d

Explanation:

up and down is outside of the x stuff so its c or d

and c is moving it up

d is moving it down

Answer 2

d) y = | x | - 2

Explanation:

In order to translate a graph downward 2 units ,we subtract 2 from the original function.

therefore,

If the Original function is y = |x|

Then the Function of the translated graph is y = | x | - 2
