Which absolute value function defines this graph?

Which Absolute Value Function Defines This Graph class=

Sagot :

The vertex of the graph is at (-2, 3).

This means the equation is of the form [tex]f(x)=a|x+2|+3[/tex].

Substituting in the coordinates of one of the other points on the graph that is not the vertex, such as (-1, -1),

[tex]-1=a|-1+2|+3\\\\-1=a+3\\\\a=-4[/tex]

So, the equation is [tex]\boxed{f(x)=-4|x+2|+3}[/tex]
