Question

Graph y = 3^x + 1 as a translation of its parent function​

Answer 1

Shift the parent function to the left by one unit

Explanation:

The given function is
`y=3^(x+1)`

The parent function is
`y=3^x`

The transformation applied to the parent function to obtain the given function is of the form,
`f(x+1)`, which is a horizontal shift to the left by one unit.

To graph
`y=3^(x+1)` we shift the graph of
`y=3^x` to the left by one unit.
