Study Notes
Graph Behavior and Transformations
- Positive Leading Coefficient: Graph opens upwards, indicating a U-shaped curve.
- Negative Leading Coefficient: Graph opens downwards, resembling an upside-down U-shape.
Reflections
- Reflection Axis: A reflection occurs over the X-axis, changing the sign of the Y-values in a function.
Horizontal and Vertical Shifts
- Horizontal Shift: The value '4' in |x+4|-2 indicates a leftward shift of 4 units on the graph.
- Vertical Shift: The value '2' in |x+4|-2 indicates a downward shift of 2 units on the graph.
