You can put this solution on YOUR website! I need a little bit of help with this problem. I have to graph 1/4^x-2, does that mean that I move my vertex right 2 times and up 4 times?

Is this what you mean??
y = (1/4)^(x-2)
---
If yes, the equation implies a shift of 2 to the right.
---
But this is a decreasing exponential function; it does
not have a vertex.
