100

Given this piecewise function, which equation would I use if I wanted to find f(1)

(top, middle, or bottom)



Bottom

100

True or false: The following equation would move the parent function 4 units left

f(x) = |x-4|

False!!!!!!

100

Is this graph continuous?

HECK NAH!!!!

100

What is the meaning of a number's absolute value?

2|x-3| = 6

x = 0 and x = 6

200

Is this graph a function? Must explain why or why not!!!

NO! Does not pass the vertical line test.

200

What would the output be if we plugged in -1 for x?

2|x-1| + 6 

10
