OD. g(x) shifts f(x) vertically units.

Answer 1

Based on the given description, we have the graph of f(x) = -ln(x). Let's analyze the impact of the function g(x) = -(-ln(x)) = ln(x).

A. g(x) compresses f(x) by a factor of 2:

This is not accurate because g(x) = ln(x) does not compress f(x) horizontally.

B. g(x) shifts f(x) to the left 1 unit:

This is accurate. The graph of g(x) = ln(x) will shift the graph of f(x) = -ln(x) to the right by 1 unit, not to the left.

C. g(x) stretches f(x) vertically by a factor of 2:

This is not accurate because g(x) = ln(x) does not stretch or compress the graph of f(x) vertically.

D. g(x) shifts f(x) vertically 2 units:

This is not accurate because g(x) = ln(x) does not shift the graph of f(x) vertically.

Therefore, the correct statement is:

B. g(x) shifts f(x) to the right 1 unit.
