absolute-value function

Vocabulary

Holt Algebra 2


An absolute-value function is a function whose rule contains an absolute-value expression. The graph of the parent absolute-value function f(x) = |x| has a V shape with a minimum point or vertex at (0, 0).

Holt Algebra 2


The absolute-value parent function is composed of two linear pieces, one with a slope of –1 and one with a slope of 1. In Lesson 2-6, you transformed linear functions. You can also transform absolute-value functions.

Holt Algebra 2


The general forms for translations are

Vertical:

g(x) = f(x) + k

Horizontal:

g(x) = f(x – h)

Remember!

Example 1A: Translating Absolute-Value Functions

Perform the transformation on f(x) = |x|. Then graph the transformed function g(x).

5 units down

Substitute.

The graph of g(x) = |x| – 5 is the graph of f(x) = |x| after a vertical shift of 5 units down. The vertex of g(x) is (0, –5).

f(x) = |x|

g(x) = f(x) + k

g(x) = |x| – 5

Holt Algebra 2


Because the entire graph moves when shifted, the shift from f(x) = |x| determines the vertex of an absolute-value graph.

Reflection across x-axis: g(x) = –f(x)

Reflection across y-axis: g(x) = f(–x)

Remember!

Absolute-value functions can also be stretched, compressed, and reflected.

Vertical stretch and compression : g(x) = af(x)

Horizontal stretch and compression: g(x) = f

Remember!
