1. Exponential Functions
Sign In
Make a table to find ordered pairs. Then, plot and connect the points with a smooth curve.
Graph:
Domain: All real numbers
Range: y<-2
To graph the given exponential function, we will first make a table of values.
| x | -8(0.75)^(x+2)-2 | y=-8(0.75)^(x+2)-2 |
|---|---|---|
| -2 | -8(0.75)^(-2+2)-2 | -10 |
| -1 | -8(0.75)^(-1+2)-2 | -8 |
| 0 | -8(0.75)^(0+2)-2 | -6.5 |
| 1 | -8(0.75)^(1+2)-2 | -5.375 |
We can see in the graph that the range is all real numbers less than -2. The domain of exponential functions is all real numbers. Domain:& All real numbers Range:& y<-2
