Using transformations and a table to graph absolute value equations

The video tutorial explains how to graph using table values, focusing on identifying the axis of symmetry and plotting the vertex. It demonstrates the process of finding the axis of symmetry by setting the absolute value expression to zero and solving for X. The tutorial also covers plotting points to the left and right of the axis and highlights the symmetry in graphing. The instructor provides tips for efficient plotting and concludes with a summary and questions.

What is the axis of symmetry for the graph discussed in the video?

How do you find the Y value when X equals -3?

Explain the process of finding the vertex of the graph.

What is the significance of the points chosen to the left and right of the axis of symmetry?

Describe how the symmetry of the graph is utilized when plotting points.
