C. because 3^0 = 1 . but the graph hits the y axis at 4 so its 3^ x + 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay @tejasvir are you 100% sure?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well if you dont believe me ask someone else to confirm it.

@mathmale @SolomonZelman can you confirm her answer?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

It is 3^x+3 In other words, you just shifted the 3^x 3 units up. Refer to the shift rules. They work like this. \(\large\color{ blue }{\large {\bbox[5pt, lightgreen ,border:2px solid white ]{ \large\text{ }\\ \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|} \hline~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\textbf{Shifts}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~&~\bf{c~~~units~~~~} \\ \hline \\f(x)= ∛x ~~~ ⇒ ~~~ f(x)= \sqrt[3]{x \normalsize\color{red }{ -~\rm{c}} } &~\rm{to~~the~~right~} \\ \text{ } \\ f(x)= ∛x ~~~ ⇒ ~~~ f(x)= \sqrt[3]{x \normalsize\color{red}{ +~\rm{c}} } &~\rm{to~~the~~left ~} \\ \text{ } \\ f(x)= ∛x ~~~ ⇒ ~~~ f(x)= ∛x \normalsize\color{red}{ +~\rm{c} } &~\rm{up~} \\ \text{ } \\ f(x)= ∛x ~~~ ⇒ ~~~ f(x)= ∛x \normalsize\color{red}{ -~\rm{c} } &~\rm{down~} \\ \\ \hline \end{array} }}}\)
