Exponential Functions & Horizontal Shifts
 
Click on the graph below to see the graph of  y = e^x  move from three units left to three units right in 60 steps, i.e., 0.1 unit at a time. What we want to appreciate in this animation is how dramatically the moving graph changes its location in relation to the original graph as it is shifted horizontally.
