Question

Which of the following describes the graph of h(x)= -2^(x+3)-4. Thanks for the help!

Answer 1

C (See attachment)

Explanation:

I got it right on the test

Answer 2

Case: Graphs

Method:

The equation:

`h(x)=-2^((x+3))-4`

We will plug in several values of x

(-3, ?), (0, ?)

`\begin{gathered} (-5,?) \\ h(-3)=-2^((-3+3))-4 \\ h(-3)=-2^0-4 \\ h(-3)=-1-4 \\ h(-3)=-5 \\ (-3,-5) \end{gathered}`

And

`\begin{gathered} (0,?) \\ h(0)=-2^((0+3))-4 \\ h(0)=-2^3-4 \\ h(0)=-8-4 \\ h(0)=-12 \\ (0,-12) \end{gathered}`

Final answer: 3rd Option

The graph:
