FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How does the graph of f(x) = |x - h| + k transform the graph of f(x) = |x|?

Back

The graph shifts horizontally by h units and vertically by k units. If h is positive, it shifts right; if negative, left. If k is positive, it shifts up; if negative, down.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What happens to the graph of f(x) = |x| when it is transformed to f(x) = -|x|?

Back

The graph flips over the x-axis, creating an upside-down V shape.
