Answer:


g(x) = x - 11

Explanation:

Given


f(x) = x - 5

Required

Translate to the right by 6 units

When a function is translated to the right, the resulting function becomes


g(x) = f(x - h)

Where h is the number of units moved;

Since; h = 6


g(x) = f(x - h)

becomes


g(x) = f(x - 6)

Solving for f(x - 6);


f(x) = x - 5

Substitute x - 6 for x


f(x - 6) = x - 6 - 5


f(x - 6) = x - 11

This implies that
g(x) = x - 11 is the result of the translation
