Describe how the graph of y = |x| - 4 is like the graph of y = |x| and how it is different.

The graph of |x| creates a v shape with the vertice at the origin. The graph of |x|-4 creates the same shape, shifted down the y axis 4 places. This means that the y intercept for |x|-4 is - 4 and the x intercepts are 4 and - 4
