The graph of f(x) = (0.5)x is replaced by the graph of g(x) = (0.5)x - k. If g(x) is obtained by shifting f(x) down by 7 units, the value of k is ________.

k is the distance of the vertical translation. Since you shifted the graph 7 units down, k will be equal to 7 So g(x) = (0.5)x - 7 is f(x) vertically translated 7 units down

What @master50777 said.

So -7?

hero (hero):

If you read what @master50777 said, you'll realize that k = 7 is the correct value.
