f(x) + n - shift a graph n units up

f(x) - n - shift a graph n units down

f(x + n) - shift a graph n units left

f(x - n) - shift a graph n units right

-------------------------------------

We have:

[tex]y=\dfrac{1}{x}\to y=\dfrac{1}{x+4}\\\\f(x)=\dfrac{1}{x}\to f(x+4)=\dfrac{1}{x+4}[/tex]

Answer: a) Moves 4 units to the left
