Question

Responses

g(x)=|x−1|−3
g(x)=start absolute value x minus 1 end absolute value minus 3

g(x)=|x+1|+3
g(x)=start absolute value x plus 1 end absolute value plus 3

g(x)=|x+3|−1
g(x)=start absolute value x plus 3 end absolute value minus 1

g(x)=|x+1|−3

Answer 1

To shift the function \( f(x) = |x| \) down 3 units and to the right 1 unit, we need to adjust the formula accordingly.

1. Shifting down 3 units means we subtract 3 from the entire function: \( |x| - 3 \).
2. Shifting to the right 1 unit means we replace \( x \) with \( x - 1 \): \( |x - 1| \).

Combining both transformations, we have: \[ g(x) = |x - 1| - 3 \]

So, the correct formula is: \[ g(x) = |x - 1| - 3 \]

This corresponds to the first option: g(x)=|x−1|−3.
