The correct answer to this question is "shift 6 units right."
The statement that best describes how to translate the graph y = |x| to obtain the graph of y = |x - 6| is that shift 6 units right.
From the equation y = |x - 6|, the graph will show you 6 units to the right.

Answer:
Shift 6 units right.
Step-by-step explanation:
Easiest way to answer this question is to plot the two graphs:
Let's plot these graphs and analyse each graph.
Lets take the graph of [tex]y=|x|[/tex] that is attached.
We can clearly see that graph intersects x axis at x=0 and then essentially looks like y=x is mirrored by the y axis.
Now when we look at the [tex]y=|x-6|[/tex] that is attached,
We can see that graph intersects x axis at x=6 and is a composite graph of [tex]y=|x-6|[/tex] and its mirrored graph by y=6.
We can clearly see that graph has moved 6 units to the right.
