To graph f%28x%29=abs%283x-2%29, first break up abs%283x-2%29 to get y=3x-2 and y=-%283x-2%29=-3x%2B2


So let's graph the two equations

Graph of y=3x-2 (red) and y=-3x%2B2 (green)


Since we're dealing with the absolute value of 3x-2, this means that all of the y values are positive. So this means that we only graph the upper portion of the "x" like this

Graph of f%28x%29=abs%283x-2%29
