Does the absolute value graph below flips or not flips? F (x) = 2|x-9|+3

The absolute value graph below does not flip.

Step-by-step explanation:

New graphs are made when transformed from their parents graphs. The parent graph for an absolute value graph is f (x) = |x|.

The equation used for a new graph transformed from the parent graph is in the form f (x) = a |k (x - d) | + c.

"a" shows vertical stretch (a>1) or vertical compression (0
"k" shows horizontal stretch (0
"d" shows horizontal shifts left (positive number) or right (negative number).

"c" shows vertical shifts up (positive) or down (negative).

The function f (x) = 2|x-9|+3 has these transformations from the parent graph:

a = 2; Vertical stretch by a factor of 2

k = 1; No change

d = 9; Horizontal shift right 9 units

c = 3; Vertical shift up 3 units

Since neither "a" nor "k" was negative, there were no flips, also known as reflections.
