Answer:

$y=\left | x \right |+3$

Explanation:

Here we are given with the parent function as

$y=\left | x \right |$

as we are given that the point (1,1) is translated to (1,4)

Hence x remains the same but new y coordinate is 4

Hence

Y = 4

Y = 1+3

Y= y + 3

$Y = \left | x \right |+3$

Hence the equation of new function is

$Y = \left | x \right |+3$
