The graph of f(x)= (0.5)^x is replaced by the graph of g(x) = (0.5)^x-k. If g(x) is obtained by shifting f(x) down 2 units, then what is the value of k?

A) k=2
B) k=1/2
C) k= -2
D) k= -1/2

Respuesta :

A) k=2 is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The downward funtion transformation is defined as:

f(x) => f(x)-b where b is an integer.

Given

[tex]f(x) = (0.5)^x[/tex]

And

[tex]g(x) = (0.5)^x-k[/tex]

It is also given that g(x)  is obtained by shifting function f 2 units downward

We will apply the transformation to function f to find the value of k.

So,

Shifting f(x) 2 units downward

we will get

[tex]g(x) = (0.5)^x-2[/tex]

comparing with [tex]g(x) = (0.5)^x-k[/tex] we get that

k = 2

So,

A) k=2 is the right answer
