\

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 x > -6 and  x < -6.

\

\

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
\

f(x) = |x + 6|

\

First, draw a co-ordinate plane.

\

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

\

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

\

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

\

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