Write an equation for a function at has a graph with the given characteristics. the shape of y=|x| is reflected across the y-axis. this graph is then vertically stretched by a factor of 1.5. Finally, the graph is shifted 4 units downward.

1 answer

reflected: y = |-x|
stretched: y = 1.5|-x|
shifted: y = 1.5|-x| - 4

However, since |-x| = |x| the reflection has no effect.
