Question

Need help with my homework please help me :(

Answer 1

Answer:

Option D) $g(x) = (3.5)^{x} - 2$ is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus on the easy point like (0,-1) from the graph.

Insert this point in all four options.

1) y = 1 - 1 = 0,  but should be -1. So wrong.

2) y = 1 + 1 = 2, but should be -1. So wrong.

3) y = 1 + 1.5 = 2.5, but should be -1. So wrong.

4) y = 1 - 2 = -1, And so it is correct.

Should also verify by inserting other values on graph.

We can also say by the fact that, $g(x) = (3.5)^{x}$ ,  being the parent equation, by transformation rule, the graph is brought down by 2. Thus g(x) -2.
