If (4,12) is a point on the graph of f(x), what must be a point on the graph of the function g(x) = -f(2x) + 3?

Final answer:

To find a point on the graph of the function g(x) = -f(2x) + 3, substitute the x-coordinate of the given point into the function and solve.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a point on the graph of the function g(x) = -f(2x) + 3, we need to substitute the x-coordinate of the given point (4, 12) into the function g(x).

g(x) = -f(2x) + 3

g(4) = -f(2*4) + 3

g(4) = -f(8) +3

Since (4, 12) is a point on the graph of f(x), f(8) = 12. Substituting this value into g(4), we get:

g(4) = -12 + 3

g(4) = -9

Therefore, the point on the graph of g(x) is (4, -9).
