To shift the graph of the function \( f(x) = x^2 \) left by 1 unit, you replace \( x \) with \( (x + 1) \). To shift the graph down by 4 units, you subtract 4 from the entire function.
Starting with \( f(x) = x^2 \):
1. Shift left by 1 unit: \( f(x + 1) = (x + 1)^2 \)
2. Shift down by 4 units: \( g(x) = (x + 1)^2 - 4 \)
The final equation of the function \( g(x) \) is:
\[
g(x) = (x + 1)^2 - 4
\]
