Question

If you apply the changes below to the absolute value parent function, f(x) = Ixl,

Answer 1

Answer:

D.) g(x) = |x + 2| - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

When you want to shift a graph to the left, you need to add a positive number directly to the "x" variable. Therefore, if you want to shift the graph 2 units to the left, you need to add 2 directly to the "x" variable (inside of the absolute value).

When you want to shift the graph downwards, you need to add a negative number to the overall function. Therefore, there should be a -3 added to the overall function to shift it 3 units down.
