It's easier if you think what transformation brings |x| to 2 - |x|.

Yes, nice!

Again, try to think of the transformation thst brings |x| to |x + 3|.

So basically, if in the absolute value, the constant is a positive you move to the left and start with a high negative

Well, yeah. As with any other function.

with absolute values there are two standard models: one where y=f(|x|)
one where y=|f(x)|
idle shuttle
with absolute values there are two standard models: one where y=f(|x|)
in this case, you just have to draw the graph of the function like the absolute value isnt there. Then you "mirror" whats at the right (so for x>0) and do the simmetry compared to the Y axis
