Step by Step: Solve the parentheses first then add that should then give you your answer
<span>Left & Right affect the h,
Up & Down affect the k,
Shrink & Stretch affect the "a" (which is in front of the absolute value expression).
1. shift 1 unit to the right and up 2 units → y = |x-1| + 2
2. </span><span>shift 3 units to the left and 7 units down → y = |x + 7| - 7
3. </span><span>vertical shrink by a factor of 1/3 → y =

|x|
4. </span><span>vertical stretch by a factor of 3
→ y = </span><span>3 |x|</span>
Each pound cost $3.32
p pounds would cost = p*3.32 = 3.32p
Total cost C = $3.32p
I hope this explains it.
ANSWER

EXPLANATION
First equation:

Second equation:

Let us equate the two equations and solve for x.
This implies that;

Group similar terms to obtain:

Simplify:

Divide both sides by 3

Put x=-2 into any of the equations.
I will put x=-2 into the first equation:

This implies that,
