Absolute Value Equations Transformations

Describe the transformation of the equation below from the parent function of y = I x I
y = -2 I x - 3 I + 3

• reflected over x axis, stretched by 2, right 3, up 3

• reflected over x axis, stretched by 2, left 3 up 3.

• reflected over x axis, shrunk by 2, right 3, up 3

• reflected over the x axis, shrunk by 2, left 3, up 3

Describe the transformations of the absolute value equation.

• Reflects over x-axis, compresses wider, shifts right 1 unit

• Reflects over x-axis, compresses wider, shifts up 1 unit

• Reflects over x-axis, stretches more narrow, shifts right 1 unit

• Reflects over x-axis, stretches more narrow, shifts up 1 unit

Describe the transformation that is applied to the parent function. 
f(x) = IxI -5

• Shifts left 5

• Shifts right 5

• Shifts up 5

• Shifts down 5

Write the equation for a graph that is vertically compressed by a factor of 2/5 and shifted up 6.

• y=6|x|-2/5

• y=2/5|x|+6

• y=2/5|x+6|

• y=2/5|x-6|
