Chapter 3, Problem 10CR

To determine

Tograph: the function by using the graph of $y=4^x$

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The function is $y=4^x+1$ .

Graph: to graph the function, use the plotting point method,

$x$	$4^x$
$0$	$1$
$1$	$4$
$-1$	$\frac{1}{4}$

Now, by using these table and points, connect the points with smooth curves,

And the graph of function $y=4^x+1$ can be obtained by shifting the graph of $y=4^x$ , $1$ units upwards,

Thus the graph of function can be obtained as:

  

Interpretation: from the above graph it can be observed that $y=4^x+1$ can be obtained by shifting the graph of $y=4^x$ , $1$ units upwards.
