Answer:
C. [tex]f(x)=-4|x|-3[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given a function formula [tex]f(x)=-4|x|[/tex]. We are asked to find the function that is obtained from translating our given function by 3 units down.
We will use transformation rules to solve our given problem.
[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(x-a)=\text{Graph shifted to right by a units}[/tex],
[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(x+a)=\text{Graph shifted to left by a units}[/tex],
[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(x)-a=\text{Graph shifted downwards by a units}[/tex],
[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+a=\text{Graph shifted upwards by a units}[/tex].
Since we need to translate our given graph by 3 units down, so we need to subtract 3 outside of our given function.
Therefore, our required graph would be [tex]f(x)=-4|x|-3[/tex] and option C is the correct choice.
