Answer:

It is the graph of f(x) shifted 2 units right and 4 units up.

A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two function. One is parent function and another is transform using shifting.

Parent Function:

\(f(x)=\log_4x\)

Now we shift 2 unit right \(x\rightarrow x-2\)

\(f(x)=\log_4(x-2)\)

Now we shift 4 unit up \(f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+4\)

\(g(x)=\log_4(x-2)+4\)

We changed f(x) to g(x) by two transformation

  • f(x) shifted 2 unit right then
  • f(x) shifted 4 unit up

Thus, we get g(x) by transform of f(x) shifted 2 unit right and shifted 4 unit up.
