Answer: Option C


g (x) = | x-4 | +6

Explanation:

If we have a main function and perform a transformation of the form


g (x) = f (x + h)

So:

If
h> 0 the graph of the function g(x) will be equal to the graph of f(x) displaced h units to the left

If
h <0 the graph of the function g(x) will be equal to the graph of f(x) displaced h units to the right

Also if the transformation is done


g (x) = f(x) + k

So

If
k> 0 the graph of the function g(x) will be equal to the graph of f(x) displaced k units up

If
k <0 the graph of the function g(x) will be equal to the graph of f(x) displaced k units downwards.

In this case the main function is
f(x) = | x | and moves 4 units to the right and 6 units to the top, then the transformation is:


g (x) = f (x-4) +6


g (x) = | x-4 | +6

Answer:

The correct answer option is C.
g ( x ) = | x - 4 | + 6.

Explanation:

We know that the transformation which shifts a function along the horizontal x axis is given by
f(x+a), while its
f(x-a) which shifts the function to the right side.

Here we are to shift the function 4 units to the right and 6 units up.

Therefore, the function will be:


g ( x ) = | x - 4 | + 6
