Question

How do you graph `y = abs[x - 1] + 4`?

Answer 1

Kindly see the explanation for the details

Explanation:

The graph of `y=abs(x-1)` includes the following points

`{(-4, 5), (-3, 4), (-2, 3), (-1, 2), (0, 1), (1, 0), (2, 1), (3, 2), (4, 3), (5, 4),(6, 5)....}`

Now let us elevate this graph up by 4 units so that the points are

`{(-4, 9), (-3, 8), (-2, 7), (-1, 6), (0, 5), (1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6), (4, 7), (5, 8),(6, 9),....}`

This is the graph of `y=abs(x-1)+4`

God bless....I hope the explanation is useful.
