Which of the following describes how to translate the graph y = |x| to obtain the graph of y = |x| - 4?

4 units up

4 units down

4 units left

4 units right

4 units down

Step-by-step explanation:

Translations are transformations that change the position of the graph of a function. The general form of the graph of a function is moved up, down, right or left

Given a function:

A vertical translation can be expressed as:

Where:

So:

It's a vertical translation 4 units down. You can corroborate checking the picture I attached you and evaluating the function at x=0

step-by-step explanation:

describing distributions is one of the key skills you’ll need to earn a high score on the ap statistics exam. if you need proof of this, just flip through some past exam questions, which can be found at the collegeboard website. you’ll notice that the first free response question is almost always a question requiring you to look at a graph and describe it.
