What is the effect on the graph of the function f(x) = x when f(x) is replaced with f(−x) + 4?
A) vertical reflection over x-axis and shifts up 4 units
B) vertical reflection over x-axis and shifts right 4 units
C) horizontal reflection over y-axis and shifts up 4 units
D) horizontal reflection over y-axis and shifts right 4 units

Answer:

C) horizontal reflection over y-axis and shifts up 4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Parent function:

[tex]f(x)=x[/tex]

Transformation:

[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(-x)+4[/tex]

Solution:

Transformation rules being applied.

[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(-x)[/tex]

Horizontal reflection on y-axis.

[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+k[/tex]

Shift of [tex]k[/tex] units up.

Thus for the given transformation : [tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(-x)+4[/tex]

Transformation 1: [tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(-x)[/tex]

The above transformation carries out horizontal reflection on y-axis.

Transformation 2: [tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(-x)+4[/tex]

The above transformation will shift the graph 4  units up.

The effect on graph of [tex]f(x)[/tex] is horizontal reflection over y-axis and shifts up 4 units
