What does the transformation 'reflects' mean in the context of exponential functions?

Back

Reflecting an exponential function across the x-axis changes the sign of the function, resulting in a downward-opening graph.

What does the transformation 'down 6' mean in the context of exponential functions?

Back

Shifting a function down by 6 units means subtracting 6 from the entire function's output.

What is the effect of a negative coefficient in an exponential function?

Back

A negative coefficient reflects the graph across the x-axis, indicating a decay rather than growth.
