To translate a function upwards by 4 units, you add a constant of four to the function.

If f(x) truly is just a constant 1/5 which is just a horizontal line...

f(x)+4=1/5+4

g(x)=(1+20)/5

g(x)=21/5

g(x)=4.2

The equation that represents the translated function for

[tex]\rm f(x) = \dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]   [tex]\rm is\;\; \rm \bold{g(x) = f(x) +4 = 4.2}[/tex].

Given that the function f(x) = 1/5 is translated up 4 units.  

We have to determine the equation that  represents the translated function

The function f(x) = 1/5  as the function is translated.    

Translation is a concept of mathematics . In translation the shape of the object is simply moved linearly from one point to other point by adding some constant values in the previous coordinates. In translation , there  is no dilation shape and size of the object remains the same.

Let us consider that if the function is translated up with 4 units then the new function is [tex]\rm\bold{ g(x)}[/tex]

So according to the language of question we

[tex]\rm g(x) = f(x) +4[/tex]

[tex]\rm g(x) = \dfrac{1}{5} +4 = \dfrac{21}{5} = 4.5[/tex]

[tex]\rm g(x) = 4.5[/tex]

The equation that represents the translated function for

[tex]\rm f(x) = \dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]      [tex]\rm is\;\; g(x) = f(x) +4 = 4.2[/tex]
