Question

Which graph represents a reflection of f(x) = 1/10 (10)x across the y-axis?

Answer 1

This is the concept of transformations, given the function given by f(x)=1/10(10)^x, when the function is reflected along the y-axis the new function will be given by f(x)=1/10(10)^(-x). This will mirror the original function.

Answer 2

We have to find a graph which represents a reflection of f(x) = 1/10 (10)x across the y-axis.

As we know that on reflecting the graph across the y-axis the x-coordinate of the point changes to opposite sign nut with same magnitude and the y-coordinate remains same.

Hence, the function f(x) is transformed to:

`f(x)=(1)/(10)* 10^(-x)`

The graph of the function passes through the point (0,0.1) and is a strictly decreasing function.

and the end behavior of the graph is that:

when x→∞ f(x)→ 0

when x→ -∞ f(x) → ∞
