The answer and work is in the SS below
Suppose that the <u>function</u> f(x) is the <u>parrent</u> function and the<u> graph</u> of the function g(x)=f(x)-a can be obtained from the graph of the parrent function f(x) by <u>shifting down</u> a units.
Rewrite the expression for the function in the following way:
This shows that the shift down is made by 17 units.
Answer: 17 units
