On each coordinate plane, the parent function f of x is equal to absolute value of x is represented by a dashed line and a translation is represented by a solid line. Which graph represents the translation g of x is equal to absolute value of x minus 4 as a solid line?

A
Image with description A coordinate plane with two V-shaped graphs. The x-axis and y-axis are labeled from negative 6 to 6 in increments of 1. The first graph is a dashed line labeled f of x equals absolute value of x, opens upward with its vertex at the origin 0 comma 0, and passes through the points negative 1 comma 1 and 1 comma 1. The second graph is a solid line, opens upward with its vertex at negative 4 comma 0, and passes through the points negative 6 comma 2 and negative 2 comma 2.
