Write an equation of the line for each of the following conditions.

a) a vertical line passing through the point (-2,9)


b) perpendicular to y = 2x, through point (-1,3)


Graph the function y = - |x| + 2, by translating y = |x|

wow. chimei89, way to do someone's homework for them. You could at least go back and explain how you arrived at your answers. And I don't think that "use a graphing calculator" is a very good answer. Better to explain how to translate the graph of y=|x| into y=-|x|+2
