Write an equation for the translation of y = |x|.

16.5 units right

y = |x| + 16.5

y = |x – 16.5|

y = |x| – 16.5

y = |x + 16.5|

1 answer

To translate the graph of \( y = |x| \) 16.5 units to the right, you need to replace \( x \) with \( x - 16.5 \) in the equation.

Thus, the correct translation is:

\[ y = |x - 16.5| \]

So, the answer is:

\( y = |x - 16.5| \)
