Which function shows the function f(x) = 3^x being
translated 5 units to the left?
A. f(x) = 3^x – 5
B. f(x) = 3^(x+5)
C. f(x) = 3^(x - 5)
D. f(x) = 3^x + 5
When you want to move a function on a graph from left to right, you "move" the x, and when moving the x; it's the opposite. So, C would move the function 5 units to the right because it is subtracting.
