Answer:

The domain but not the range of the transformed function is the same as that of the parent function ⇒ answer D

Explanation:

* Lets talk about the transformation

- If the function f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then the new

function g(x) = - f(x)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right by h units,

then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)

- The domain of a function is set of the values of x which make

the function defined

- The range is the set values of y that corresponding with the domain

- The domain of the function f(x) = IxI is the set of all real numbers

∴ The domain of f(x) is {x : x ∈ R}

- The range of the function f(x) = IxI is the set of all real numbers

greater than or equal 0

∴ The range f(x) = {y : y ≥ 0}

∵ f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then it will be change to g(x) = -IxI

∴ All the y-coordinates of the point on the function will be change

from positive values to negative values

∵ The rang of f(x) is {y : y ≥ 0}

∴ The range of g(x) is {y : y ≤ 0}

∵ After the reflection the function translated 6 units to the right

∴ The x will change to x - 6

∴ The function will be h(x) = -Ix - 6I

- There is no values of x make h(x) undefined, then its domain is

set of all real number

∴ The domain of h(x) is {x : x ∈ R}

∵ The domain of f(x) is {x : x ∈ R}

∵ The range of h(x) is the same the range of g(x)

∴ The range of h(x) is {y : y ≤ 0}

- f(x) and h(x) have same domains and different ranges

∴ The correct statement is: The domain but not the range of the

transformed function is the same as that of the parent function

- Look to the attached graph for more understanding

# The red graph is f(x)

# The blue graph is h(x)

The graph of f(x) = |x| is reflected across the x-axis and translated to the right-example-1
