Question

FAN AND MEDAL!!
Given the parent function f(x) = 2x, which graph shows f(x) + 1?

a) exponential function going through point 0, 2 and ending up on the right

b)exponential function going through point 0, 0 and ending down on the right

c)exponential function going through point 0, 0 and ending up on the right

d)exponential function going through point 0, 1.5 and ending up on the right

Answer 1

would it be a?

Answer 2

It's important to express your functions correctly. At first I'd thought your 2x meant "2 times x." Please choose one or more of the following ways to express this exponential functin: f(x) = 2^x or \[f(x)=2^x\] or

Answer 3

the one you drew

Answer 4

You'll need to draw the parent function, first. Then we can discuss what happens when you add 1 to f(x).

The parent function is \[f(x)=2^x\]

Answer 5

How would you graph this? Do y ou know the basic shape of exponential functions? this is a very important class of functions.

Answer 6

curved right?
