Answer 2

The equations that represent the reflected functions are

`f(x)=5((1)/(5))^(-x)`

`f(x)=5(5)^(x)`

Explanation:

The correct question in the attached figure

we have the function

`f(x)=5((1)/(5))^(x)`

we know that

A reflection across the y-axis interchanges positive x-values with negative x-values, swapping x and −x.

therefore

`f(−x) = f(x).`

The reflection of the given function across the y-axis will be equal to

(Remember interchanges positive x-values with negative x-values)
`f(x)=5((1)/(5))^(-x)`

An equivalent form will be

`f(x)=5((1)/(5))^((-1)(x))=5[((1)/(5))^(-1))]^(x)=5(5)^(x)`

therefore

The equations that represent the reflected functions are

`f(x)=5((1)/(5))^(-x)`

`f(x)=5(5)^(x)`
