To translate the function \( y = |x| \) upward by 6.5 units, you simply add 6.5 to the entire function. Therefore, the correct equation after the translation is:
\[ y = |x| + 6.5 \]
So the answer is: \( y = |x| + 6.5 \)
Write an equation for the translation of y = |x|.
6.5 units up
y + 6.5 = |x|
y = |x| + 6.5
y = |6.5x|
y = |x| – 6.5
