Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Basic Graph

The given function is \( g(x) = -(x-4)^3 \). The basic graph to start with is \( f(x) = x^3 \).

Step 2: Apply Transformations
  1. Shift Right 4 Units: The transformation \( f(x-4) = (x-4)^3 \) shifts the graph of \( f(x) = x^3 \) to the right by 4 units.
  2. Reflect Across the X-axis: The transformation \( g(x) = -(x-4)^3 \) reflects the graph across the x-axis.

Final Answer

The function \( g(x) = -(x-4)^3 \) is obtained by starting with the graph of \( f(x) = x^3 \), shifting it right 4 units, and then reflecting it across the x-axis.
