Question

Write the equations after translating the graph of y = |x|:
one unit up,

Answer 1

y = | x | + 1

Explanation:

Given y then y + c represents a vertical translation of y

• If c > 0 then a shift up of c units

• If c < 0 then a shift down of c units

Here the shift is 1 unit up, thus

y = | x | + 1
