Question

How does the graph of the transformed function f(x)=4^x+5 -2 compare to the graph of its parent function.

Answer 1

1. 1st transformation is translation the parent function $y=4^x$ 5 units to the left. After this transformation the function becomes $y=4^{x+5}.$

2. The second transformation is translation 2 units down. After this transformation the function becomes $y=4^{x+5}-2.$

Answer: correct choice is B.
