![The equation presented is:
\[ h(x) = e^{-x} - 5 \]
This is a mathematical function where:
- \( h(x) \) represents the output of the function for a given input \( x \).
- \( e^{-x} \) indicates the exponential function with a base of \( e \) (Euler's number, approximately 2.718) raised to the power of \(-x\).
- The expression \( e^{-x} - 5 \) implies that 5 is subtracted from the result of the exponential function.
This function represents an exponential decay, shifted downwards by 5 units on a graph. Exploring its behavior graphically would show an exponential curve approaching -5 as \( x \) moves towards positive infinity.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fea000c69-b4f2-413a-9977-6a5d2d2ee8af%2F353c6a70-d8a7-428c-a89a-3337652711a1%2Fhem4x3q_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
