Question

Which ordered pair is the vertex of y = |x + 5|?

please me the steps


(–5, 0)


(0, –5)


(5, 0)


(0, 5)

Answer 1

if we make x a big positive, y becomes big infinitely
if we make x a small negative,y becomes big infintley

we needd to make absolut value 0
x+5=0
x=-5

sub back
y=|-5+5|
y=0

(-5,0)
