Plug x = 0 into f(x) to get

f(x) = 2^x

f(0) = 2^0

f(0) = 1

The y intercept (0,1) is on the graph of f(x).

The y intercept for the red curve shown is (0,3). It has been moved up two units compared to (0,1)

Therefore, g(x) = f(x)+2 where g(x) represents the red curve.

g(x) = f(x) + 2


g(x) = 2^x + 2 is the answer
