Transformations Absolute Value Functions

Write an absolute value function given the following transformations:
Reflection across the x-axis
Vertical shift right 2 units
Horizontal shift down 7 units

• y = -|x + 2| - 7 

• y = |x - 2| - 7 

• y = -|x - 2| - 7

• y = -|x - 2| + 7

Describe the transformations of the absolute value equation.

• Flips to A shape, compresses wider, shifts right 1 unit

• Flips to A shape, compresses wider, shifts up 1 unit

• Flips to A shape, stretches more narrow, shifts up 1 unit

The shape of the function is

• a U shape

• a V shape

• randomly placed curved lines

• an X shape

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
