First answer gets !
the graph shows the parent function f(x)=2(0.5)x. (first picture)

which graph represents the function g(x)=2(0.5)x−1?

a. second picture
b. third picture
c. fourth picture
d. fifth picture

The 4th picture will be the correct one.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first picture shows the graph of f(x) and in the options there are pictures of graph of g(x) = f(x) -1

So, it is clear from the equation of the functions that the graph of f(x) and g(x) will be similar but the the y value in g(x) will be 1 less than the y value in f(x) corresponding to a certain x value.

So, the graph will translate down by 1 unit.

Therefore, the 4th picture will be the correct one.
