Question

Help Please! What statement correctly describes the key features of the graph of f(x) = − 4(one half)x + 1 − 3?

Answer 1

\[f(x)=-4\left(\begin{matrix}1 \\ 2\end{matrix}\right)^{x+1}-3\]

Answer 2

Y-intercept of (0, −5), starts up on the left, gets closer to y = −3 on the right

Y-intercept of (0, −5), starts down on the left, gets closer to y = −3 on the right

Y-intercept of (0, 5), starts up on the left, gets closer to y = −3 on the right

Y-intercept of (0, 5), starts down on the left, gets closer to y = −3 on the right

Answer 3

Let's start with the y-intercept. What is \(f(x)\) when \(x = 0\)?

Answer 4

it is f(0)=0 ?

Answer 5

Nope. Plug \(x = 0\) in that equation you are given.

Answer 6

im not sure how to do that i forgot how :( can u show me how to do that?

Answer 7

\[f(x) = -4 \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{x + 1} - 3\]\[f(0) = -4\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{0+1} - 3\]

Answer 8

oh, ok, so when you do that it just changes the x value in the x+1 so it would be o and then the f of x is zero as well?

Answer 9

Why would \(x+1\) be zero?

Answer 10

IDK

Answer 11

because x=0 so the x's in the equation change to zero?

Answer 12

shhhh Alex and turn ur caps off jeez lol

Answer 13

ok

Answer 14

The only \(x\) there is \(x + 1\). When you plug in zero, you get \(1\).

Answer 15

oh ok, because 0+1 =1

Answer 16

Hey, Rolltideroll!

Answer 17

Right. So what is\[-4\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^1 -3\]

Answer 51

ok i guessed this and i got it right on flvs
this is the correct answer, lol dont ask me how but i got it right

Y-intercept of (0, −5), starts up on the left, gets closer to y = −3 on the right

so b?
