Interpreting Absolute Value Functions

Which equation represents an absolute value function that has been translated 4 units down and 3 units right?

• y = |x + 4| - 3

• y = |x - 3| - 4

• y = |x + 3| - 4

• y = |x - 4| + 3

Describe the transformations of the absolute value equation.

• Flips to A shape, compresses wider, shifts right 1 unit
• Flips to A shape, compresses wider, shifts up 1 unit
• Flips to A shape, stretches more narrow, shifts right 1 unit
• Flips to A shape, stretches more narrow, shifts up 1 unit
