Question

HELP ME ASAP THIS IS TIMED. DO NOT GUESS, EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER.

Answer 1

The third one is correct. You cannot figure it out from the parent function, |x|, because they are all the same. As a result, you have to figure it out from the y-intercept. The y-intercept of a function most of the time is the constant of the function. The y-intercept here is 0.5. Using this, you can find the corresponding graph. That would be the  third  option. 

Hope I helped! Happy New Year!

Answer 2

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider a graph f(x) = |x| then the graph will start from origin (0, 0).

Since it's a parent function of g(x) = |x| + 0.5

When the parent function is shifted 0.5 units upward on y-axis then the new function g(x) = |x| +0.5 is formed.

Therefore, option C. will be the answer which has the y-intercept of 0.5 units.
