Well you have to first find the constant of Brand X which would be 2.70/10 = .27. Brand Y is .4 more so that would be .31 per ounce. So then .31 x 11 = 3.41. The cost of 11 ounces of brand Y is $3.41.
1. To translate to the left, add to x.
The equation is: y = |x + 2|
2. To translate down, add to y.
The equation is: y + 2 = |x| OR y = |x| - 2 (subtract 2 from each side)
Hope this helps!
