The equations are .
First find the minimum point of the graph.
Since absolute value function can not be negative,
the minimum point of the graph is where .
The original function is .
Set original function
(Subtract 7 from each side)
(Apply additive inverse property: )
(Apply additive identity property: )
(Multiply each side by negative one)
(Product of two same signs is positive)
The original function is .
Set original function
(Add 3 to each side)
(Apply additive inverse property: )
(Apply additive identity property: )
Next make at table, fill out the table with values for x > 3 and x < 3, .

First, draw a co-ordinate plane.
Locate the points on co-ordinate plane and draw the graph through these points.
Observe the graphs, both graphs have different shapes and
points on and have common point is .
The graphs of and have in common point is .
