Observe the given graph :
\The parent function is an absolute value function, i.e,
.
Graph of the function
is : \ \
=abs(x).gif\")
Let
be the function after transformation.
Observe the two graphs f and g :
\The graph of g is a horizontal shift of four units to the left followed by a downward shift of two units of the graph of
.
So, the equation for the given graph is
.
The equation for the given graph is
.
