Answer

$y=|x+\frac{3}{2}|$

Work Step by Step

The graph of $y=|x+h|$, where $h$ is a positive number, translates the graph $y=|x|$ to the left $h$ units. By substituting $\frac{3}{2}$ in for $h$, we can translate the graph $\frac{3}{2}$ units to the left. This gives us the equation $y=|x+\frac{3}{2}|$
