Answer:
-4 is the mimumum of y=-3+cos(x+4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The minimum value of y=cos(x) is -1.
The minimum value of y=cos(x+4) is still -1; the +4 inside the cosine function only affected the horizontal shift.
The minimum value of y=-3+cos(x+4) is -3-1 which is -4. This brought the graph down 3 units so if the minimum was previously -1 and it got brought down 3 units then it's new minimum is -4.
A is correct. Just move the negative sign from in front of the 9 and place it in front of the 4.

I hope you got the hang of it.
I didn't had a place to draw the verbal questions, so I just did them in my head - if you want to understand it better
I suggest that you draw those triangles
