Question

The graph shows the function f(x) = |x – h| + k. What is the value of h?

h = –3.5
h = –1.5
h = 1.5
h = 3.5

Answer 1

I can’t see the graph you’re referring to. For f(x) = |x − h| + k, the vertex is at (h, k), so h is simply the x-coordinate of the vertex (the V‑point).

If you upload the graph or tell me the vertex’s x-coordinate, I’ll pick the correct choice. (If the vertex’s x-value is 3.5, pick 3.5; if it’s 1.5, pick 1.5; etc.)
