The answer should be A. 36.
Answer:
y = -|x +2| +4
Step-by-step explanation:
The parent function y=|x| is shifted to the left 2 units, so x is replaced by x+2. It is reflected across the x-axis, so is multiplied by -1: -|x+2|. It is shifted up 4 units, so has 4 added to it:
y = -|x+2| + 4
Which variable are you talking about? In this question x is 4 and y is 5.
Hope this helped!
Good Luck!
