Answer:

B. y = | x + 15.5 |

Explanation:

Given : y= |x|.

To find : Write an equation for each translation of y= |x|. 15.5 units left .

Solution : We have given that y= |x|.

By the translation rule :if function transformed to f(x ) →→→ f(x +h) Then graph of the function would shift h units left.

For translation 15.5 unit left we need to add 15.5 in function y= |x|.

y = | x + 15.5 |

Therefore, y = | x + 15.5 |.
