Question 1

a transformation that makes the absolute value graph wider; the graph is pushed farther away from the axis of symmetry

Answer 1

transformation

Question 2

the lowest or highest point of the graph of an absolute function

Answer 2

Vertex

Question 3

A function that has a v shaped that opens up or down

Answer 3

Absolute value function

Question 4

a function that is described by more than one equation

Answer 4

piecewise-defined functions.

Question 5

a peicewise defined function that consist of consistent pieces; the graph resembles a set of steps

Answer 5

step functions

Question 6

shifts each point of the graph of a function across a line called the line of reflection; flip

Answer 6

Reflection

Question 7

maps each point of a graph to a new location

Answer 7

translation

Question 8

a transformation that makes the absolute value graph narrower, the graph is pushed closer to the axis of symmetry

Answer 8

strech

Question 9

the line that divides the graph of an absolute value function into 2 sections that are reflections of each other

Answer 9

axis of symmetry

Question 10

shifts each point of the graph of a function the same distance; slide

Answer 10

compression
