Let g(x) be the transformation of f(x) = IxI so that the vertex is at (-1, -3). Identify the rule for g(x) and its graph.

Step-by-step explanation

Since the vertex is at (-1, -3), the only appropriate option is to translate the function one unit to the left, and again translating 3 units down, with the following form:

g(x) = |x+1| - 3

Therefore, the solution is the last option.
