The function f(x) is shown below: f(x) = (4)x + 5 The function f(x) is shifted to the right by 13 units. Which of the following best represents the new function? a f(x) = (4)^x - 8 b f(x) = (4)^x + 13 c f(x) = (4)^x + 18 d f(x) = (4)^x - 13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I do believe it is C

OpenStudy (midhun.madhu1987):

To the left means Subtract... f(x) = 4^x + 5 - 13 This is what I think...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well were going to the right so we must be adding

OpenStudy (midhun.madhu1987):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i thought C was correct

OpenStudy (midhun.madhu1987):

5 - 13 = -8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your saying d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so wait a second the function is representing a positive shift
