Answer:

To shift the absolute value parent function, f(x) = |x|, 5 units to the right and 7 units down, we need to make the following changes to the equation:

To shift the absolute value parent function, f(x) = |x|, 5 units to the right and 7 units down, we need to make the following changes to the equation:

For the horizontal shift of 5 units to the right, we replace x with (x + 5).

For the vertical shift of 7 units down, we subtract 7 from the entire equation.

Applying these changes, the equation of the new function, g(x), would be:

g(x) = |(x + 5)| - 7

Therefore, the correct option is:

D. g(x) = |x + 5| - 7
