To find the value of h in the function f(x) = −2∣x + 8∣+ 7, follow these steps:

 

The given function is: f(x) = −2∣x + 8∣+ 7

To match this with y = a∣x − h∣+ k:

 

Rewrite ∣x + 8∣ as ∣x − (−8)∣ to match the form ∣x − h∣.

Here, a = −2 (indicating a vertical stretch by a factor of 2 and a reflection over the x-axis).

h = −8 (bec...
