Absolute Value Graph Transformation

Describe the transformation from the Absolute Value Parent Function.

• Shift up 4 units

• Shift down 4 units

• Shift left 4 units

• Shift right 4 units

What is the equation of the graph below? You can click the picture to zoom in!

• f(x) = I x + 2 I 

• f(x) = I x  I + 2

• f(x) = I x  I - 2

• f(x) = I x - 2 I 

Use Narrow, Wide, or Same to compare the width of this graph to its parent function.
y = 4|x + 3| - 2

• Narrow

• Wide

• Same

Write an absolute value function given the following transformations:
Reflection across the x-axis
Vertical shift right 2 units
Horizontal shift down 7 units

• y = -|x + 2| - 7 

• y = |x - 2| - 7 

• y = -|x - 2| - 7

• y = -|x - 2| + 7

The blue graphs is the parent function f(x)=|x|, the red must be

• g(x)=|x+2|

• g(x)=|x|+2

• g(x)=|x-2|

• g(x)=|x|-2

The blue graphs is the parent function f(x)=|x|, the red must be

• g(x)=|x+2|

• g(x)=|x|+2

• g(x)=|x-2|

• g(x)=|x|-2

Describe the transformation from the Absolute Value Parent Function.

• Stretches more narrow, shifts right

• Stretches wider, shifts right

• Stretches more narrow, shifts left

• Stretches wider, shifts left

Which function is graphed?

• f(x) = -|2x - 5| + 5

• f(x) = -|x - 3| - 3

• f(x) = -2|x + 3| + 5

• f(x) = -2|x + 5| - 3

Describe the transformations of the absolute value equation.

• Flips to A shape, compresses wider, shifts right 1 unit
