Solution Steps
Step 1: Horizontal Shift
To shift the graph of $f(x) = |x|$ horizontally by 4 units, we replace $x$ with $(x - (4))$ in the function. This gives us the intermediate function $g(x) = |x - (4))|$.
Step 2: Vertical Shift
To shift the graph vertically by 8 units, we add 8 to the function after applying the horizontal shift. This results in the final function $g(x) = |x - (4))| + (8).$
Final Answer:
The equation of the function after applying both horizontal and vertical shifts is $g(x) = |x - 4| + 8.$ This represents the graph of $f(x) = |x|$, shifted horizontally by 4 units and vertically by 8 units.
