Write a rule y=f(x) that would produce the graph.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

  y = | x+2 | -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value function is shifted left 2 units and down 1. That makes it ...

  y = abs(x+2) -1

Using the usual symbols for absolute value:

  y = |x+2| -1

_____

The translation transformation is ...

  y = f(x -a) +b

to translate the graph of f(x) right by "a" units and up by "b" units. Here, we have a translation left 2 and down 1, so a=-2, b=-1. The original function is the absolute value function in this case.
