Which of the following statements best describes the effect of replacing the graph of y = f(x) with the graph of y = f(x) + 9?

The graph of y = f(x) will shift up 9 units.

The graph of y = f(x) will shift down 9 units.

The graph of y = f(x) will shift left 9 units.

The graph of y = f(x) will shift right 9 units.
