1 The graph of \(y = \mathrm{f}(x)\) is shown below.

V-shaped graph with its vertex below the x-axis to the right of the y-axis, crossing the x-axis once to the left of O and once to the right, and crossing the y-axis below O

One of the four equations listed below is the equation of the graph \(y = \mathrm{f}(x)\)

Identify which one is the correct equation of the graph.

Tick (✓) one box. [1 mark]

  • \(y = |x + 2| + 3\)
  • \(y = |x + 2| - 3\)
  • \(y = |x - 2| + 3\)
  • \(y = |x - 2| - 3\)
