Answer:

The graph shifts up 5

Explanation:

1. I just answered this same question on USA Test Prep

2. If you insert f(x) =|x| and f(x) +5 into Desmos graphing calculator you can see that the graph shifts upward by 5 along the y-axis

The y axis is changed because you added 5. So the vertex would now be (0,5)
