First find the minimum point of the graph.

Since absolute value function can not be negative, the minimum point of the

graph is where $\"\"$ . $\"\"$

The original function is $\"\"$

Set original function $\"\"$

$\"\"$

$\"\"$ (Subtract 6 from each side)

$\"\"$ (Additive inverse property: $\"\"$ )

$\"\"$ (Additive identity property: $\"\"$ ) $\"\"$

Next make at table, fill out the table with values for $\"\"$ .

First, draw a co-ordinate plane.

Locate the points on co-ordinate plane and draw the graph through these points.

$\"absolute$

Observe the graphs, both graphs have same shape and points on $\"\"$ are 6 units higher than the points on $\"\"$ .

The graph of $\"\"$ is the graph of $\"\"$ and translated 6 units up.

The graph of $\"\"$ is the graph of $\"\"$ and translated 6 units up.
