SOLUTION

So, from the graph, we are looking for the range of


\begin{gathered} g(x)=-f(x)-5 \\ where\text{ } \\ f(x)=10^x \\ \end{gathered}

The graph of g(x) is shown below


g(x)=-10^x-5

The range is determined from the y-axis or the y-values. We can see that the y-values is from negative infinity and ends in -5. So the range is between

negative infinity to -5.

So we have


\begin{gathered} f(x)<-5\text{ or } \\ (-\infty,-5) \end{gathered}

So, comparing this to the options given, we can see that

The answer is option B
