Absolute value functions

Question 1

g(x) = lxl + k
g (x) = lxl - k
What directions does each go?
Both have an x value of …

Answer 1

• = down k, + = up k
  -2 to 2

Question 2

F(x) = lx-hl
F(x) = lx+hl
What directions do each go?
What are the x values?

Answer 2

+ h = right, - h = left
-h x value = 0 to -4
+h x value = 0 to -4

Question 3

What are the 3 rules for M(x) = a lxl
What are the x values

Answer 3

if a > 1, it shrinks.
If 0 < a < 1, it widens
If a < 0, it reflects over the y-axis
The x values: -2 to 2
