Question

Which of the following is the graph of f(x)= |x| reflected on the x-axis, translated 3units left, 4 units up, and dilated by a factor of 4?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflecting on the x-axis is multiplying the formula by a -1. That is, the resulting form is pointing up. When translated to the left 3 units, the tip of the graph is at the point (-3,0). Then when shifted 4 units up the tip is at (-3,4). Dilated by a factor of 4 will affect the values in x, but not the values in y. So the tip remains at the point (-3,4) which corresponds to the second graph
