f(x)=x-1

Step-by-step explanation

To move a function up, you add outside the function: f (x) + b is f (x) moved up b units

so , we have


f(x)=x-5

to traslate the function 4 units up, we have to add (4) units, so


\begin{gathered} f(x)=x-5\rightarrow traslate(\text{ ad4)}\rightarrow f(x)=x-5+4 \\ f(x)=x-1 \end{gathered}

therefore, the answer is


f(x)=x-1

I hope this helps you
