Question

how would you Graph f(x)= 2e^x-1?

Answer 1

do you know what the graph of f(x) = e^x looks like, its best to start there

Answer 2

no i dont get wat i plug in for e

Answer 3

dont worry about the "e" its just a number. e = 2.72...
you should have a button for it on your calculator

more generally the graph of f(x) = b^x is a exponential function with a horizontal asymptote at y=0 and y-intercept at 1

Answer 4

btw is it e^(x-1) or (e^x) -1

Answer 5

its (2e^x)-1

Answer 6

Now shift the graph down 1
so new asymptote is y=-1
find new y-intercept
y = 2e^0 -1
y = 2-1=1
