Graph of $y=|x-h|+k$ and $y=-|x-h|+k$ : Exercise (6.1) - Solutions


Graph of the Function $y = |x − h| + k$


The graph of the absolute value function$y = |x − h| + k$ can be seen as the translation of $h$-units horizontally and $k$-units vertically of the graph $y = |x|$.

Graph of the Function $y = -|x − h| + k$


The graph of the absolute value function$y = -|x − h| + k$ can be seen as the translation of $h$-units horizontally and $k$-units vertically of the graph $y = -|x|$.
