Questions and Answers

The figure shows the graph of the function $y = f(x)$ with a solid line. The dotted curve is the graph of the function: (See image)

  • $y = -f(-x)$ (correct)
  • $y = f(1 - x)$
  • $y = f(-x)$
  • $y = f(x) - 1$
  • $y = -f(x)$

Flashcards

What is the transformation f(-x)?

Reflects the graph of f(x) across the y-axis. The x-coordinate of each point is replaced by its opposite.

What is the transformation -f(x)?

Reflects the graph of f(x) across the x-axis. The y-coordinate of each point is replaced by its opposite. It flips the function vertically.

What is the transformation f(x) - 1?

Shifts the graph of f(x) downwards by 1 unit. Decreases the y-coordinate of each point by one.

What is the transformation f(1 - x)?

Shifts the graph of f(x) horizontally. f(1-x) shifts the original function and reflects it across a vertical line.

What is the transformation -f(-x)?

First reflects the function across the y-axis [f(-x)], then reflects across the x-axis [-f(-x)].

Study Notes

  • The solid line represents the function y = f(x).
  • The task is to identify which transformation of f(x) corresponds to the dotted curve.
  • Option (B) y = f(-x) is marked as incorrect.
  • The possible transformations to consider are:
    • y = f(1-x)
    • y = -f(x)
    • y = -f(-x)
    • y = f(x) - 1
