How does the graph of y=|x|+ 4 compare to the graph of the parent function y=|x|?
1 answer:
Answer:
Please check the explanation and attached graph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the parent function
y = |x|
In order to translate the absolute function y = |x| vertically, we can use the function
g(x) = f(x) + h
when h > 0, the graph of g(x) translated h units up.
Given that the image function
y=|x|+4
It is clear that h = 4. Since 4 > 0, thus the graph y=|x|+4 translated '4' units up.
The graph of both parent and translated function is attache below.
In the graph,
The blue line represents the parent function y=|x|.
The red line represents the image function y=|x| + 4.
It is clear from the graph that the y=|x| + 4 translated '4' units up.
Please check the attached graph.
