Answer: 1.
g(x) is translated 7 units down from
f(x)

Explanation:

The missing statements are:

1.
g(x) is translated 7 units down from
f(x)

2.
g(x) is translated 7 units left from
f(x)

3.
g(x) is translated 7 units up from
f(x)

4.
g(x) is translated 7 units right from
f(x)

Below are shown some transformations for a function
f(x):

If
f(x)+k, the function is shifted up "k" units.

If
f(x)-k, the function is shifted down "k" units.

If
f(x+k), the function is shifted left "k" units.

If
f(x-k), the function is shifted right "k" units.

Then, in this case, given the function
f(x):


f(x) = 5^x

And given the function
g(x):


g(x) = 5^x-7

You can identify the transformation:


f(x)-k

Therefore, based on the transformations explained before, you can conclude that the graph of the function
g(x) is translated 7 units down from the graph of the function
f(x).
