This video tutorial covers the process of applying various transformations to functions, focusing on absolute value functions. It explains how negative numbers cause reflections over the x-axis and how stretches affect the graph's shape. The tutorial also discusses identifying the vertex and axis of symmetry, and demonstrates graphing the transformed function step-by-step.

What does a negative number multiplied to the absolute value function cause?

• A reflection over the x-axis

• A shift to the right

• A horizontal compression

• A vertical stretch

What is the parent function for an absolute value function?

• y = |x|

• y = log(x)

• y = x^2

• y = e^x

How do you determine the vertex of the function y = -3|x + 2| - 1?

• (2, 1)

• (2, -1)
