Question

Which describes the translation of the graph of f (x ) = e^x to create the graph of f (x )= e^x+ 2 - 9?

Answer 1

B. Left 2 units, down 9 units

Explanation:

You would determine the x value by making the equation for x equal to 0. In this case we have x + 2 = 0. Subtract 2 from both sides to get x = -2. Determine the y value by the last digit which is -9. You now have the coordinate -2, -9, which is left 2 units and down 9 units.
