</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
y = -23(x + 9) + 4
y = 0
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: 0 = -23(x + 9) + 4
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4 on both sides: -4 = -23(x + 9)
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide -23 on both sides: 4/23 = x + 9
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 9 on both sides: -203/23 = x
- Rewrite: x = -203/23
Answer:
<em>B. The graph of g is the graph of f shifted 2 units down</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Graph of Functions</u>
We have two functions:
f(x)=3^x
g(x)=3^x-2
Since g(x)=f(x)-2 it will be represented as an identical graph as that for f(x), but vertically displaced 2 units down. Let's check it by plugging some points
f(0)=3^0=1
g(0)=3^0-2=-1
f(1)=3^1=3
g(1)=3^1-2=1
f(3)=3^3=27
g(3)=3^3-2=25
We can notice the values of g(x) are always 2 units below f(x), thus the correct answer is
B. The graph of g is the graph of f shifted 2 units down
