Step 1
To sketch the graph of y=|x|, we know that it is a V-shaped graph with the vertex at the origin (0,0) and opening upwards. To sketch the graph of y=|x+6|+2, we first need to shift the graph of y=|x| horizontally to the left by 6 units to get y=|x+6|. Then, we Show more…

Graphing Transformations The graph of a function $f$ is given. Sketch the graphs of the following transformations of $f .$ $$ \text { (a) } y=f(2 x) \quad \text { (b) } y=f\left(\frac{1}{2} x\right) $$
