Horizontal Translations
What do you notice from the previous two graphs? You may have noticed that the parent function \(y=2^x\) shifted left 4 units from it’s original position.
What do you wonder? You might be wondering if a translation always occurs when you add a constant value to the \(x\) -value, or input.
Create a table representing the parent function, as well as its graph, if you were to translate the parent exponential function right 3 units, graph it, create a new table and the equation of the new function. Desmos would be a good tool to utilize.
