The function \( g(x) = \cos(x) - 12 \) compares to the parent function \( g(x) = \cos(x) \) by shifting the graph vertically. Specifically, the "-12" indicates that the entire graph of the cosine function is moved downwards by 12 units.
So, the correct response is:
The graph is shifted 12 units down.
