Answer:

y = |x -4|

Explanation:

You want the new function after the absolute value function is moved 4 units to the right.

Horizontal translation

When the function f(x) is translated to the right by h units, the new function is f(x -h).

Application

When the function ...

y = |x|

is translated right 4 units, the new function is ...

y = |x -4| . . . . . . . x is replaced by x-4.

If I have the absolute value parent function and I move it to the right 4 units, what-example-1
