Question

Graphing Natural Exponential Functions In Exercise, sketch the graph of the function.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph:  f(x) = 1 - ex

You meant f(x) = 1 - e^x, where ^ represents exponentiation.

First, graph the parent function y = e^x.  The y-intercept of this graph is (0, 1), and the x-axis is the horizontal intercept.  The graph begins on the left in Quadrant 2 and continues upward in Quadrant 1.

Next, reflect this graph in the x-axis, due to the - sign in f(x) = 1 - e^x.  The y-intercept is (0, -1) and the horizontal asymptote is the x-axis.

Finally, translate the whole graph upward by 1 unit.
