Question

In the equation y=ab^(x-h) +k how does the value of k affect the graph

Answer 1

The higher the value of k, higher the position of the curve on the graph. It affects the position of the plot along y.

Hope I helped

Answer 2

Answer:

• if k > 0 then the graph of the given equation will get shifted upward by k units.

• if k< 0 then the graph of the given equation will get shifted downward by k units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the equation  y=ab^(x-h) +k and we have to state that how the value of k affect the graph.

We know that if we add/subtract some constant in the function value then the translation of the parent graph occurs in the vertical direction.

In other words, the parent graph either get shifted upward or downward depends on the value of the constant.

Therefore, we have

• if k > 0 then the graph of the given equation will get shifted upward by k units.

• if k< 0 then the graph of the given equation will get shifted downward by k units.
