Use Transformations to Graph the Function $$f ( x ) = - 2 ^ { x + 3 } + 4$$

Use transformations to graph the function. Determine the domain, range, and horizontal asymptote of the function.
- $$f ( x ) = - 2 ^ { x + 3 } + 4$$

A) domain: $( - \infty , \infty )$ ; range: $( - \infty , - 4 )$
horizontal asymptote: $\mathrm { y } = - 4$

B) domain: $( - \infty , \infty )$ ; range: $( - 4 , \infty )$
horizontal asymptote: $\mathrm { y } = 4$

C) domain: $( - \infty , \infty )$ ; range: $( - \infty , - 4 )$
horizontal asymptote: $y = - 4$

D) domain: $( - \infty , \infty )$ ; range: $( - \infty , 4 )$
horizontal asymptote: $\mathrm { y } = 4$
