Parent function: y=|x| a=1 h=0 k=0 Equation y=a|x-h|+k This project uses pen to graph an absolute value equation. When it starts up it will ask you for the slope, the x origin, and the y origin. The slope is a number multiplied by x that changes the steepness of the graph. A slope > 1 will be steeper that the parent function. A slope < 1 but > 0 will be less steep than the parent function. A slope of 0 will be a horizontal line. Lastly a slope < 0 with reflect the graph. The x origin is x value of the vertex. Also the y origin is the y value of the vertex. You will be also be asked what you want the x and y scale to be. This will determine how many point will be on the x and y axis. Press "r" to add another line.
