In order to graph we need to plot some points. In order to find some points, we need to plug in some x values

Start with the given equation


Plug in


Evaluate the absolute value of -2 to get 2


Add


So our first point is (-2,5)


Let's plot the 1st point (-2,5)



Let's find the 2nd point

Start with the given equation


Plug in


Evaluate the absolute value of -1 to get 1


Add

So our 2nd point is (-1,4)


Plot the 2nd point (-1,4)




Let's find the 3rd point

Start with the given equation


Plug in


Evaluate the absolute value of 0 to get 0


Add

So our 3rd point is (0,3)



Plot the 3rd point (0,3)





Let's find the 4th point

Start with the given equation


Plug in


Evaluate the absolute value of 1 to get 1


Add

So our 4th point is (1,4)



Plot the 4th point (1,4)





Let's find the 5th point

Start with the given equation


Plug in


Evaluate the absolute value of 2 to get 2


Add

So our 2nd point is (2,5)



Plot the 5th point (2,5)



Now draw a line through all of the points to graph





Answer:
So the graph of is
