Given:

The graph of the function f is given and the function g is as:


g(x)=-(1)/(2)f(x+2)

Required:

To graph the function g.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the function f(x+2), shift the graph f(x) left 2 units by subtracting 2 from the x-coordinates of the points on the graph of f.

The graph of the function


(1)/(2)f(x+2)

here


a=(1)/(2)

So the graph of g has undergone a vertical shrinking by a factor of


(1)/(2)

The graph of the function


g(x)=-(1)/(2)f(x+2)

reflect the graph of


(1)/(2)f(x+2)

across the x-axis by multiplying the y coordinate of the points on the graph of


(1)/(2)f(x+2)

by -1.

Thus the graph of the function


g(x)=-(1)/(2)f(x+2)

is as:

Final Answer:

The graph of the function g is attached in the explanation part.
