SOLUTION: Thank You If f(x) = 2^x, describe the transformation of the curve for g(x) = -2^x-2

Question 64671: Thank You
If f(x) = 2^x, describe the transformation of the curve for g(x) = -2^x-2

Answer by rapaljer(4671) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Because f(x)=2^x, the graph of g(x) = -2^x will be INVERTED (that is, upside down!), and because of the -2 at the end, the values of g(x) will all be 2 units lower on the graph (that is, a vertical shift DOWN 2 units!).

The graph below illustrates f(x), then f(x) inverted, then g(x), which is actually f(x) inverted and shifted down 2 units:
