The graph of an absolute value function contains the points (1, 2), (0, 0), and (–1, 2). Shawn thinks the function this graph represents is f(x) = 2|–x|. Brielle thinks the function this graph represents is f(x) = 2|x|. Determine who is correct and explain why.

Answer:

Both Shawn and Brielle are correct. The absolute value parent function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, and the absolute value of negative x is a reflection across the y-axis, so the graph of these two functions would look identical. Additionally, if you wanted to verify that the given points are on the graph of both functions, you could substitute them into the functions to get true statements.

What did you include in your response? Check all that apply.

A
Both Shawn and Brielle are correct.
B
The absolute value parent function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.
C
The graphs of f(x) = 2|–x| and f(x) = 2|x| are identical because the absolute value of negative x is a reflection across the y-axis.
D
If you substitute the three given points into both functions, they produce true statements.
