Answer:

It's C, g(x) = (1/2)^x

This is a horizontal reflection of y = 2^x

across the y axis.

Explanation:

Using the process of elimination, you can spot this answer by applying what is logical about the transformations of an exponential function.

The transformations of a standard exponential function can be given by:

ab^(1/c(x-h))+k

First note that A must be incorrect because -2^x would be a reflection across the x axis which would not match the function g because a reflection across the x axis would cause the exponential growth or decay value b to become a reciprocal and -2 is not a reciprocal of 2.
