The graph of g(x) results when the graph of f(x) = |x| is shifted 4 units to the right.

Which is the equation of g(x)?
(Points : 4)
g(x) = -4|x|

g(x) = |x| + 4

g(x) = -|x - 4|

g(x) = -|x + 4|

ddcamp · Answer

If g(x) is f(x) shifted 4 to the right, then
g(x) = f(x-4)
Everywhere you see x in f(x), replace it with (x-4), then simplify.

|the draw feature is hopeless! the lag is unbelievable.

anonymous · Answer

is there another way you could explain it

cwrw238 · Answer

the correct answer is not one of the option  
correct is g(x) = |x - 4|

anonymous · Answer

the | x| is suppose to be  -|x| would that change the answer to -|x-4|
