Solution Steps

To find the function g(x) g(x) that represents f(x)=x f(x) = \sqrt{x} shifted up 4 units and left 8 units, we need to apply transformations to f(x) f(x) . Shifting a function up by 4 units involves adding 4 to the function, and shifting it left by 8 units involves replacing x x with x+8 x + 8 . Therefore, the transformed function g(x) g(x) is given by g(x)=x+8+4 g(x) = \sqrt{x + 8} + 4 .

Step 1: Define the Original Function

The original function is defined as: f(x)=x f(x) = \sqrt{x}

Step 2: Apply the Transformations

To find the function g(x) g(x) that represents f(x) f(x) shifted up 4 units and left 8 units, we perform the following transformations:

  1. Shift Left by 8 Units: Replace x x with x+8 x + 8 .
  2. Shift Up by 4 Units: Add 4 to the function.

Thus, the transformed function g(x) g(x) is given by: g(x)=x+8+4 g(x) = \sqrt{x + 8} + 4

Final Answer

The function g(x) g(x) is: g(x)=x+8+4 \boxed{g(x) = \sqrt{x + 8} + 4}
