Which function represents g(x), a reflection of f(x) = 6(one-third) Superscript x across the y-axis?


g(x) = −6(one-third) Superscript x

g(x) = −6(one-third) Superscript negative x

g(x) = 6(3)x

g(x) = 6(3)−x
the answer...C g(x) = 6(3)x

Respuesta :

The function [tex]g(x)=6(3)^{x}[/tex] represents a reflection of [tex]f(x)=6(\frac{1}{3})^{x}[/tex] across the y-axis ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the reflection across the axes

  • If the function f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then its image is g(x) = - f(x)
  • If the function f(x) reflected across the y-axis, then its image is g(x) = f(-x)

∵ [tex]f(x)=6(\frac{1}{3})^{x}[/tex]

∵ g(x) is the image of f(x) after reflection across the y-axis

- From the rule above reflection across the y-axis changes the sign of x

∴ [tex]g(x)=6(\frac{1}{3})^{-x}[/tex]

∵ [tex](a)^{-n}=(\frac{1}{a})^{n}[/tex]

∵ [tex](\frac{1}{a})^{-n}=(a)^{n}[/tex]

∴ [tex](\frac{1}{3})^{-x}=(3)^{x}[/tex]

∴ [tex]g(x)=6(3)^{x}[/tex]

The function [tex]g(x)=6(3)^{x}[/tex] represents a reflection of [tex]f(x)=6(\frac{1}{3})^{x}[/tex] across the y-axis
