Which graph represents the function f(x)=0.5x+4? Which graph represents the function f(x)=−2x−1?

Step-by-step explanation:

1.)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.

2.)-(2^x) - 1 will have a y-intercept of -1-1 = -2, a horizontal asymptote of y=-1, and will be decreasing everywhere. The third selection is the graph that has these characteristics.
