domain is all real number because you can raise 2 to any power you like
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[f(x)=-2^x+3\]
range will be \[(-\infty,0)\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but
\[2^x\geq 0 \] for all x so
\[-2^x\leq 0\] and therefore
\[-2^x+3\leq 3\] for any x

oooops

LOL
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I am rusty
OpenStudy (anonymous):
agree; totally.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now for intercepts. y intercept put
\[x=0\] get
\[-2^0+3=-1+3=2\] so (0,2) is y intercept
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Range is all y values strictly less than 3. There is an horizontal symptom at y=3.

for x intercept set
\[-2^x+3=0\] and solve
you get
\[2^x=3\] so
\[x=\log_3(2)=\frac{\ln(3)}{\ln(2)}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
last one in case you need a decimal you can use that and a calculator to find it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how would you solve sin^2 (pi/4) - cos^2 (pi/3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thank you so much I was basically there but needed to finish it up.
