The transformation, y = -8 | x -4 | -16 from the parent function f(x) = |x| are the following:
the constant -16, means that it is down by 16 units.
the negative in the coefficient 8 means it is reflected over x-axis.
the coefficient 8 also means that is steeper by a factor of 8
and the binomial |x - 4| means that it is shifted right by 4 units.
Therefore, what is NOT a transformation among the choices is Left 4.
