Simplify:

−3=12y−5(2y−7)

−3=12y+(−5)(2y)+(−5)(−7)(Distribute)

−3=12y+−10y+35

−3=(12y+−10y)+(35)(Combine Like Terms)

−3=2y+35

Flip the equation.

2y+35=−3

Subtract 35 from both sides.

2y+35−35=−3−35

2y=−38

Divide both sides by 2.

2y/2=−38/2

y=−19

What is the vertex of the absolute value function defined by ƒ(x) = |x + 2| + 4?

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

C. (-2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a function $f(x)=|x+2|+4$ and we are asked to find the vertex of our absolute value function.

The rules for the translation of a function are as follows:

$f|x-h|=\text{Graph shifted to right by h units}$

$f|x+h|=\text{ Graph shifted to left by h units}$

$f|x|+h=\text{ Graph shifted upward by h units}$

$f|x|-h=\text{ Graph shifted down by h units}$

Upon comparing our absolute function with above transformations we can see that our function is shifted to two units right of the origin(0,0) so x coordinate of our absolute function will be -2.

Our function is shifted upward from origin by 4 units, therefore, y-coordinate of our absolute value function will be 4.

$f(x)=|x--2|+4$

Therefore, the vertex of our absolute value function will be on point (-2,4) and option C is the correct choice.
