Answer:

Option C) It goes through the origin.

This is the wrong statement about the parent exponential function.

Explanation:

We are given the following:

The characteristic of exponential parent function:


f(x) = y = b^x\\\text{where b is the base}

A) True

The range is all positive number that is y > 0

Range can never be negative.

B) True

The domain is all real number.

C) False

It does not pass through origin.


y = f(0) = b^0 = 1

D) True

It always passes through (0,1) as shown above.
