The original function shifts vertically down four units.

Answer 1

The transformation that occurs when changing the equation from \( f(x) = -|x| \) to \( f(x) = -|x| + 4 \) is that the original function shifts vertically up four units.

So the correct response is:

**The original function shifts vertically up four units.**
