The original function shifts vertically up four units.

The original function shifts horizontally to the left four units.

The original function shifts horizontally to the right four units.

The original function shifts vertically down four units.

Answer 1

The original function shifts vertically up four units.

Explanation: adding +4 to f(x) raises every y-value by 4 (e.g., the vertex moves from (0,0) to (0,4)).
