ANSWER

D. a vertical translation of f(x) four units downward

EXPLANATION

The given function are:

f(x)=|x|

and

g(x)=|x|-4.

We can rewrite g(x) in terms of f(x) to obtain:

g(x)=f(x)-4.

This means that, if the graph of f(x) is translated 4 units down, we obtain the graph of g(x).

Hence g(x) is a vertical translation of f(x) four units downward.

The correct choice is D.
