Reflections and Dilations of Absolute Value Functions

Question 83115 • [INMT2] Integrated Math 2 Sem 1 (26-27)

The parent absolute value function is reflected across the x-axis and translated right 2 units. Which function is represented by the graph?

Answer
A
–|x – 2|
B
–|x + 2|
C
|–x| – 2
D
|–x| + 2

Explanation

The parent function is f(x) = |x|. Reflecting it across the x-axis puts a negative sign outside: −|x|. Translating it 2 units right replaces x with x − 2, giving −|x − 2|, which is choice A.
