Describe how the graph of F(x)= -4^(x-3) -2 can be obtained from the graph of F(x)= 4^x
Solution
F(x)= -4^(x-3) -2
parent graph: F(x)= 4^x
Following steps of transformation are involved:
aI shift horizontally by 3 units to right 4(x-3)^2
b) then shift vertically up by 2 units : 4(x-3)^2 +2
c) Rflect the resulting graphacross x axis : -(4(x-3)^2 +2)
F(x) = -4^(x-3) -2
