The parent function f(x) = x is translated by 4 units to the left to become g(x) = x + 4
Explanation:The given function is:
g(x) = x + 4
This is a linear funtion, and the parent function is:
f(x) = x
The graph of the parent function f(x) = x is plotted below
The graph of the transformed function g(x) = x + 4 is plotted below
As seen in the graphs above, the parent function is translated by 4 units to the left
