A i guess
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=!x+4!
as you move 4 points on x-axis just..
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
A translation in x is a horizontal translation.
When x is replaced by x - h, the translation is h units horizontally.
It is to the right if h is positive and to the left if h is negative.

@lilia222
How much did this graph translate?
How many units and left or right?

y= |x+4|
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Incorrect.
How about just answer my question above to start with.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
In all honesty, I don't know.
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Ok. Maybe you need to see the graph of y = |x|
|dw:1404674176977:dw|
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Ok. Look at my graph above. That is the graph of the relation y = |x|.
Now compare the given graph to mine.
That is what the problem is asking you to do.
They assumed you knew what the graph of y = |x| looks like.

Notice that in your problem, the v-shaped graph has moved horizontally.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No, I didn't.
It moved right 4 on the x axis.. x= +4
