Key Features and Transformations of Parent Functions

What is the parent function for an absolute value function?

• f(x)=x³
• f(x)=x
• f(x)=IxI
• f(x)=x²

What is the parent function for a cubic function?

Dale graphed the absolute value parent function. Then,he reflected the graph over the x-axis, shifted it four units to the right and three units up. What is the new equation?

• f(x) = Ix+4I +3
• f(x) = Ix+4I -3
• f(x) = -Ix+3I +4
• f(x) = -Ix-4I +3

What is the equation to this graph?

• f(x)= Ix+2I +1
• f(x)= Ix-2I +1
• f(x)= Ix+2I -1
• f(x)= Ix-2I -1

What is the range to this graph?

• y> 1
• y>= 1
• y< 1
• y<= 1

What is the vertex:
