Solution Steps

To determine how the function \( f(x) \) was transformed to become \( g(x) \), we need to analyze the changes in the \( y \)-values for corresponding \( x \)-values. By comparing the differences between the \( y \)-values of \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \), we can identify if there is a consistent shift, reflection, or stretch. In this case, it appears that there is a consistent vertical shift between the two functions.

Step 1: Analyze the Transformation

To determine the transformation from \( f(x) \) to \( g(x) \), we compare the \( y \)-values of both functions for the same \( x \)-values. The \( y \)-values for \( f(x) \) are \([0.1111, 0.3333, 9, 27, 81]\) and for \( g(x) \) are \([-1.8889, -1.6667, 7, 25, 79]\).

Step 2: Calculate the Differences

We calculate the differences between the corresponding \( y \)-values of \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \): \[ \begin{align_} -1.8889 - 0.1111 &= -2.0000, \\ -1.6667 - 0.3333 &= -2.0000, \\ 7 - 9 &= -2, \\ 25 - 27 &= -2, \\ 79 - 81 &= -2. \end{align_} \]

Step 3: Identify the Transformation

The differences between the \( y \)-values are consistent and equal to \(-2\). This indicates a vertical shift of \( f(x) \) downward by 2 units to obtain \( g(x) \).

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\text{D. Horizontal or vertical shift}}\)
