Question

How do you graph `y = -7|x-3| - 4`?

Answer 1

Reflect the graph over the y-axis, translate the graph 3 units to the right and 4 units down, and apply a scale factor of 7.

Explanation:

The vertex of the graph will be `(3,-4)`. The graph will also be facing down. As for the scale factor, for every 1 unit to the left or right of the vertex, 7 "units" will be covered downwards.
