Graph a absolute value equation with a reflection and horizontal translation

The video tutorial explains how to graph an absolute value function, specifically focusing on the equation Y equals the opposite of the absolute value of X plus 2. It covers the impact of transformations, such as reflections and shifts, on the graph. The tutorial details how the negative sign reflects the graph over the X-axis, causing it to open downwards, and how the addition of 2 shifts the vertex horizontally. The instructor guides viewers through the process of plotting the graph by identifying the new vertex and following a pattern to connect points, resulting in a complete graph of the function.
