What is the vertex of the following function?
y=2|x-3|+1

Which is the equation of the graph below?

• f(x) = I x + 2 I 
• f(x) = I x  I + 2
• f(x) = I x  I - 2
• f(x) = I x - 2 I 
• none of these

Which is the equation of this graph?

• y=2|x-3|+1

• y=2|x-1|+3

• y=-2|x+1|+3

• y=-2|x-1|+3

• none of these

• +4 on both sides

• Split the problem absolute value problem into two. One positive. One negative.

• Divide by -2 on both sides. Because I can only split my problem when the absolute value problem is alone.

Match the following. Use the general absolute value equation as a guide:

y = a∣x - h∣ + k

• moves the graph up/down

• if "a" is a whole number...

• flips the graph over

• the "k"

• moves the graph left/right

• if "a" is a fraction...

• ...the graph gets thinner

• "-a"

• ...the graph gets wider

• the "h"

Write the following:

Five more than the absolute value of a number

Wyatt and Emerson went shopping at a back-to-school sale where all shirts and shorts were the same price. Wyatt spent $175 on 7 new shirts and 7 pairs of shorts. Emerson purchased 6 new shirts and 7 pairs of shorts and paid a total of $165. How much did one shirt cost?

• $5

• $10

• $15

• $20

• none of these comes close to the solution
