which of the following describes the transformations of g(x)=-(2)^×+4-2 from the parent function f(x)=2^×

Answer:
4 units to the left, reflected over the x-axis, shift two units down
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex form of an exponential function is
[tex]y=ab^{x-h}+k[/tex], where:
h indicates a horizontal shift (positive left, negative right)
k indicates a vertical shift (positive up, negative down)
a indicates slope/reflection over X-axis (negative = reflected)
So looking at the function [tex]g(x)=-(2)^{x+4}-2[/tex]
h = 4, meaning moved 4 units to the left
k= -2, meaning moved 2 units down
a= -1, meaning reflected over x-axis
