+graph%28+600%2C+600%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+2%5Ex%2C+2%5E%28x-1%29%2C2%5E%28x-1%29%29+
f%28x%29+=+2%5Ex
w%28x%29=2%5E%28x-1%29

f%28x%29=a%2Abase%5E%28x-h%29%2Bk+ where
a is the vertical transformation,
h is the horizontal shift (to the left if h%3E0 and to the right if h%3C0), and
k is the vertical shift
f%28x%29+=+2%5Ex, what is the transformation of w%28x%29=2%5E%28x-1%29
h=1 means the graph of f%28x%29 is moved to the right 1 unit
