As shown below...

In this case i will assume that you mean #[x] -= |x| #

Now we must graph # y= |x| # first of all...

This just mean the line # y = x # but where there are any negative values of #y# we make them there possitive counterpart...

#y = |x| :#
graph{y =|x| [-9.67, 10.33, -3.56, 6.44]}

Now we can just perform the tranformation of shiting it down by #5#:

# y = |x| -5 #:

graph{y = |x| -5 [-9.295, 10.705, -8.16, 1.84]}
