Question

The parent function, f(x) = 5^x, has been vertically compressed by a factor of one-half, shifted to the right three units and down two units.

Choose the correct function to represent the transformation.

Answer 1

½[5^(x-3)] - 2

Explanation:

After being compressed:

½(5^x)

3 units right

½[5^(x-3)]

2 units down

½[5^(x-3)] - 2
