This video tutorial covers the basics of absolute value functions, focusing on their graphing and transformations. It explains the V-shaped graph of absolute value functions and how to plot them using a table of values. The tutorial then delves into transformations, including stretching, compressing, and shifting, and how these affect the graph. It also covers reflections over the x and y axes. The video concludes with real-world applications of these transformations and a summary of the key points discussed.

• U-shaped

• S-shaped

• V-shaped

In a real-world application, if the roof of a house is modeled by an absolute value function that is shifted 6 units to the right and 3 units up, what is the equation of the function?

• f(x) = |x + 6| + 3

• f(x) = |x - 6| + 3

• f(x) = |x + 6| - 3

• f(x) = |x - 6| - 3
