Use the images to answer the question.

A V shaped line passes through 7 plotted points on a coordinate plane with x-axis ranging from negative 9 to 9 in increments of 1 and y-axis ranging from negative 11 to 11 in increments of 1. An upward open parabola passes through 5 plotted points on a coordinate plane with x-axis ranging from negative 12 to 12 in increments of 2 and y-axis ranging from negative 6 to 18 in increments of 2.

The best response from the options provided is:

The intercepts of both graphs have changed as a result of the transformation.

This option describes a common transformation characteristic of both a V-shaped graph (which represents an absolute value function) and an upward-opening parabola (which represents a quadratic function). Both graphs can have their intercepts affected by transformations such as translations (shifts) and scaling, which change their positions and values on the coordinate plane compared to their parent functions.
