Answer:
Slide UP 2
Step-by-step explanation:
In the equation,
f(x) = 9|x+1| + 2
There are three transformations of the parent function f(x)=|x| (this is the simplest form of this function, it's a v-shaped graph)
The 9 in front will vertically stretch the graph and make it look like a "skinny" v-shaped graph.
The +1 in close to the x inside the absolute value bars |x+1| will shift (slide) the graph to the left (it's the opposite of what you might think-- 'plus' shifts the graph left and 'minus' shifts the graph right)
The +2 at the end is the transformation you're looking for. It slides the graph as you would expect UP 2 units. If it was a minus it would shift the graph down instead.
12 units, hmm.. I think your answer is correct.
True!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) 
First, let's expand the expression:


Next, let's factor the quadratic:

Finally, set the equation equal to
to find the solutions


(2) During the step
, when you take the square root of both sides, you have two equations, rather than one:
and
, so the solutions should be 
(3)

Add
to both sides

Multiply both sides by 

Take the square root of both sides
±
Subtract
from both sides
