The graph of f(x)=3•2^x -3 is shown below. G(x) is a transformation of f(x). How would you write the equation for the function g(x)?

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the appropriate equation, notice the red graph has shifted up about 6 units. This means that [tex]3*2^x-3[/tex] which is shifted by -3 will move 6 up. -3+6= 3. This means the function will have +3. Only B and C are options. Now test a point. Notice the red function crosses the y-axis at about 5 or 6 when x=0.
[tex]g(x) = 2^x+3\\g(0) = 2^0+3\\g(0)=1+3\\g(0)=4[/tex]
This function doesn't match.
[tex]f(0) = 3*2^0+3\\f(0) = 3*1+3\\f(0)=6[/tex]
This function matches. Option C is correct.
