Easy -2.0 This is a straightforward pattern-matching question requiring only recognition of how transformations affect the modulus function graph. Students need to identify the vertex position from the diagram and match it to the correct equation form—a single-step recall task with no calculation or problem-solving required.
The graph of \(y = f(x)\) is shown below.

One of the four equations listed below is the equation of the graph \(y = f(x)\)
Identify which one is the correct equation of the graph.
Tick (\(\checkmark\)) one box.

\(y = |x + 2| + 3\)
\(y = |x + 2| - 3\)
\(y = |x - 2| + 3\)
\(y = |x - 2| - 3\)
The graph of $y = f(x)$ is shown below.

$y = |x + 2| + 3$
$y = |x + 2| - 3$
$y = |x - 2| + 3$
$y = |x - 2| - 3$
