Question
Let \( f(x)=4 \sqrt{x} \). If \( g(x) \) is the graph of \( f(x) \) shifted up 6 units and left 3 units, write a formula for \( g(x) \). \( g(x)=\square \) Enter \( \sqrt{x} \) as sqrt(x).

Beyond the Answer
To shift the function \( f(x) = 4 \sqrt{x} \) up 6 units, you add 6 to the function, resulting in \( 4 \sqrt{x} + 6 \). To shift the function left 3 units, you replace \( x \) with \( x + 3 \) in the function. Therefore, the formula for \( g(x) \) becomes: \[ g(x) = 4 \sqrt{x + 3} + 6 \]
