Question

p open parentheses x close parentheses equals 6 to the power of x end exponent is translated 5 units to the right.
Identify the asymptote of the translated exponential function.

  1. y = - 3    
  2. y = 6    
  3. x = - 3    
  4. y = 0    

hintHint:

We know that,  p open parentheses x close parentheses equals 6 to the power of x minus 5 end exponent is the horizontal translation of p open parentheses x close parentheses equals 6 to the power of x end exponent by 5 units to the right. The asymptote of the function p open parentheses x close parentheses equals 6 to the power of x end exponent is y = 0. The asymptote, y = 0, remains unchanged. So now we can now determine the asymptote.

The correct answer is: y = 0


    p open parentheses x close parentheses equals 6 to the power of x minus 5 end exponent is the horizontal translation of p open parentheses x close parentheses equals 6 to the power of x end exponent by 5 units to the right.
    The asymptote of the function p open parentheses x close parentheses equals 6 to the power of x end exponent is y = 0.
    The asymptote, y = 0, remains unchanged.
    So, the asymptote of p open parentheses x close parentheses equals 6 to the power of x minus 5 end exponent is also y = 0.
