Need help answering these questions. The equations help show the starting point and the graphing. You have to find out if the “pigs” will hit the black bird.You made need a desmos graphing calculator.Exponential equation to graph the Black Birds Flight: g(x) = 2^(x-8) + 1The following questions are on the picture.

Step-by-step explanation

Let's first plot the coordinates:

Now, plotting the given function:

1) Starting point of the bird:

2) At least 4 points plotted along flight path:

-The path goes from the starting point to the final point at x=20 as shown as follows:

-Transformations of the functions:

The parent function is 2^x

The transformations are the following:

- A translation 8 units to the right.

-A translation 1 units up

-Identifying if the Black Bird hits a Pig:

The black bird hits the King Pig at (11,9)

-Explaining how we know a the bird hits a pig:

This is because the given function touch the point (11,9)
