Begin by graphing the absolute value function, f(x) = |x|. Then use transformations of this graph to graph the given function. g(x) = |x|+3

검증된 단계별 안내

Start by graphing the parent function f(x) = |x|. This is the absolute value function, which forms a V-shaped graph with its vertex at the origin (0, 0). The graph opens upwards, with the left side having a slope of -1 and the right side having a slope of 1.
Understand the transformation applied to the parent function. The given function g(x) = |x| + 3 adds a constant value of 3 to the output of the absolute value function. This is a vertical shift.
Apply the vertical shift to the graph of f(x) = |x|. To do this, move every point on the graph of f(x) = |x| upward by 3 units. For example, the vertex (0, 0) of f(x) = |x| will move to (0, 3).
Adjust the slopes of the graph accordingly. The left side of the graph will still have a slope of -1, and the right side will still have a slope of 1, but the entire graph is now shifted upward.
Sketch the transformed graph of g(x) = |x| + 3. Label the vertex at (0, 3) and ensure the V-shape is preserved, with the left and right sides extending as described.

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Absolute Value Function

The absolute value function, denoted as f(x) = |x|, outputs the non-negative value of x. This function has a V-shaped graph that opens upwards, with its vertex at the origin (0,0). Understanding this function is crucial as it serves as the foundation for graphing transformations.

Graph Transformations

Graph transformations involve shifting, reflecting, stretching, or compressing the graph of a function. In this case, adding a constant (like +3) to the absolute value function translates the graph vertically upwards by 3 units. Recognizing how these transformations affect the graph is essential for accurately sketching the new function.

Intro to Transformations

Vertical Shift

A vertical shift occurs when a constant is added to or subtracted from a function's output. For g(x) = |x| + 3, the entire graph of f(x) = |x| is moved up by 3 units. This concept is important for understanding how the position of the graph changes without altering its shape.
