The general form of an absolute value function is:
where (h, k) = vertex
From the line, the vertex of the graph in blue is:
To find a, we have to pick a point (x, y) on the line and input it into the general function.
Let us pick (2, 1).
Therefore, we have:
Therefore, the absolute value function is:
