Question

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 3 units, the value of k is ________.

Answer 1

it would be -3

Answer 2

because in the equation f(x) = (0.5)x, there is no y-intercept so k = 0. For the second equation, it says that it shifts down by 3 units which refers to the y-intercept so it's -3

Answer 3

@maria_brianna do you understand?
