Answer:

y = -¼│x − 5│+ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = a│x − h│+ k

(h, k) is the vertex of the absolute value graph.  In this case, it's (5, 3).

y = a│x − 5│+ 3

One point on the graph is (1, 2).  Plug in to find the value of a.

2 = a│1 − 5│+ 3

2 = 4a + 3

a = -¼

Therefore, the graph is:

y = -¼│x − 5│+ 3

Difference obiously means subtraction in this situation and you are subtraction 2 from the end result. " The product of 3 and k" is just refering to multiplying an unknown value by 3. This unknown value then becomes a variable and 3 becomes the coefficient. When these numbers are put together, they are suggesting multiplication. It can also be written to be less confusing. (3 x k)-2 which is the same thing as 3k-2.
