Question

Which of the following describes how to translate the graph y = Ixl to obtain the graph of y = 1x - 11 - 1?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

While your y = 1x - 11 - 1 is a function, it doesn't make sense in this context.  I believe you meant y = |x - 11| - 1.

if that's correct, then the graph of this new function is obtained by translating the graph of y = |x| 11 units to the right and 1 unit down.

Unfortunately this result doesn't match any of the four answer choices.  I ask that you go back to the original problem and type out the original of

y = 1x - 11 - 1.
