FIND X AND Y INTERCEPTS OF ABSOLUTE VALUE FUNCTION WORKSHEET

Find x and y intercepts of following absolute functions :

Problem 1 :

y = 3|x - 1| + 2

Problem 2 :

y = 2|x|

Problem 3 :

y = |x| + 5

Problem 4 :

y = -2|x + 1| - 3

Problem 5 :

y = -3/5|x + 3| + 10

Problem 6 :

y = 15|x|

Problem 7 :

y = 5/3|x + 2| - 1

Problem 8 :

y = -2|x + 1| - 3

Answer Key

1) no x-intercept, y -Intercept is (0, 5).

2) x -Intercept is (0, 0), y -Intercept is (0, 0).

3) no x-intercept, y -Intercept is (0, 5).

4) no x-intercept, y -Intercept is (0, -5)

5) x-intercepts are (41/3, 0) and (-59/3, 0), y -Intercept is (0, 41/5)

6) x -Intercept is (0, 0), y -Intercept is (0, 0).

7) x -Intercept are (-7/5, 0) and (-13/5, 0), y -Intercept (0, 7/3).

8) no x-intercept, y -Intercept is (0, -5).
