Absolute value functions and transformations.notebook October 14, 2014 Absolute Value Functions and Graphs Objective: I can graph an absolute value function by performing transformations on the parent function f (x) = |x|. Oct 123:13 PM 1 Absolute value functions and transformations.notebook October 14, 2014 Vocabulary · The function f(x) = |x| is an absolute value function. · The highest or lowest point on the graph of an absolute value function is called the vertex. · An axis of symmetry of the graph of a function is a vertical line that divides the graph into mirror images. An absolute value graph has one axis of symmetry that passes through the vertex.

Oct 123:39 PM 15 Absolute value functions and transformations.notebook October 14, 2014 y = a |x – h| + k Oct 123:41 PM 16 Absolute value functions and transformations.notebook October 14, 2014 Multiple Transformations In general, the graph of an absolute value function of the form y = a|x – h| + k can involve translations, reflections, stretches or compressions. To graph an absolute value function, start by identifying the vertex Oct 123:50 PM 17 Absolute value functions and transformations.notebook October 14, 2014 Graphing Absolute Value Functions Graphing y = a|x – h| + k is straight forward: 1. Plot the vertex (h, k). (note…if +h inside that means h is negative(to the left); if – h inside that means h is positive (to the right) 2. Use the a value as slope to plot more points. Remember you have to do positive and negative slope to get points on both sides of the V 3. Connect the dots in a Vshape.
