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.
