Question

Which of the following functions is graphed below?

O A. y=x-4-2
O B. y=x+4-2
O C. y = x+4+2
D. y = x - 4+2

Answer 1

Option (B)

Explanation:

Given question is not complete; find the complete question in the attachment.

In the graph attached,

Parent function is an absolute value function,

f(x) = |x|

When this graph is shifted 4 units left, rule for the translation will be,

f(x) → f(x + 4)

Therefore, the new function of above translation will be,

g(x) = f(x + 4) = |x + 4|

Now the graph is shifted 2 units down so the translated function will be,

h(x) = g(x) - 2

h(x) = |x + 4| - 2

If we rewrite the function in the form of an equation, graph will be represented by

⇒ y = |x + 4| - 2

Therefore, Option (B) will be the answer.
