Question

Which exponential function represents the graph if j open parentheses x close parentheses equals 3 to the power of x end exponent is moved 7 units to the right?

  1. 3 to the power of x end exponent plus 7    
  2. 3 to the power of x minus 7 end exponent    
  3. 3 to the power of x plus 7 end exponent    
  4. 3 to the power of x end exponent minus 7    

hintHint:

When the graph of the function f open parentheses x close parentheses equals a to the power of x end exponent is translated horizontally, the exponential function will be a to the power of x minus h end exponent.
If h > 0, the parent function is shifted to the right.

The correct answer is: 3 to the power of x minus 7 end exponent


    When the graph of the function f open parentheses x close parentheses equals a to the power of x end exponent is translated horizontally, the exponential function will be a to the power of x minus h end exponent.
    If h > 0, the parent function is shifted to the right.
    If h < 0, the parent function is shifted to the left.
    The function j open parentheses x close parentheses equals 3 to the power of x end exponent becomes 3 to the power of x minus 7 end exponent when translated by 7 units to the right.
