If you apply the changes below to the absolute value parent function, f(x)=|x|, what is the equation of the new function. shift 5 united to the left . shift 4 units down

Step-by-step explanation:

The following rules will permit you to predict the equation of a new function after applying changes, especifically translations, that shift the graph of the parent function in the vertical direction (upward or downward) and in the horizontal direction (left or right).

        Let the parent function be f(x) and k a positive parameter, then f (x + k) represents a horizontal shift of k units to the left, and f (x - k) represents a horizontal shift k units to the right.

        Let, again, the parent function be f(x) and, now, h a positive parameter, then f(x) + h represents a vertical shift of h units to upward, and f(x - h) represents a vertical shift of h units downward.

Hence, since the parent function is f(x) = |x|

Furthermore:

c. prove the lengths are the same.

step-by-step explanation:

you need to prove the segments are congruent. congruent segments have the same length. find the lengths of the segments using the distance formula, and compare them.

answer: c. prove the lengths are the same.
