Write a rule for g that represents the indicated transformations of the graph of f.

a) g(x) = -(1/3)(x^3) - (2x^2) + 7

b) g(x) = -(x^3) - (2x^2) + 7

c) g(x) = (1/3)(x^3) + (2x^2) + 7

d) g(x) = (x^3) + (2x^2) - 7

Final answer:

The student is asked to determine the rule for g(x) showing the transformation of the function f(x), involving scaling, reflection, and translation.

Thus the corret opction is:a.b.c.d

Step-by-step explanation:

The student has asked to write a rule for g(x) that represents the transformations of the graph of f(x).

The rules provided in the options resemble functions that have been transformed through vertical scaling, reflection, and translations. Specifically, the rules include changes such as:

  • Vertical scaling by a factor -1 or 1/3.
  • Reflection across the x-axis if preceded by a negative sign.
  • Vertical translation by 7 units up or down.

The original function f(x) would undergo transformations based on the coefficients and constants in the rules given in the options (a), (b), (c), and (d).
