What transformation has changed the parent function f(x) = 3(2)x to its new appearance shown in the graph below? exponential graph passing through point 0, 1.

OpenStudy (montverde):

OpenStudy (montverde):

thats the entire question

OpenStudy (loser66):

Still need help?

OpenStudy (montverde):

yes :(

OpenStudy (loser66):

from original one, if x =0, f(x) =?

OpenStudy (montverde):

0?

OpenStudy (loser66):

3*(2^0) =0?

OpenStudy (montverde):

6

OpenStudy (loser66):

try one more time, please

OpenStudy (montverde):

i thought the 0 belonged to entire equation because its outside the parenthesis

OpenStudy (loser66):

Common, 2^0 =1

OpenStudy (montverde):

so 3?

OpenStudy (loser66):

yup, now, look at your new graph, when x =0 , y =?

OpenStudy (montverde):

1?

OpenStudy (loser66):

yup, so 1 = 3-?

OpenStudy (montverde):

-2

OpenStudy (loser66):

then, f(x) -2 forms a new graph, dat sit

OpenStudy (montverde):

why wouldnt it be f(x − 2)

OpenStudy (loser66):

Because you a ^x is the original function, and all of them pass through (0,1)

OpenStudy (montverde):

ok thanksss you are the bomb.com

OpenStudy (loser66):

and you bring the whole thing down. not to the right or left to (x +/-something)
