Math Problem Statement
( 2 , 1 ) (2,1) is a point on the graph of y
f ( x ) y=f(x). Find the corresponding point on the graph of each of the following functions.
y
1 − f ( 1 − x ) y=1−f(1−x)
Solution
We are given that is a point on the graph of , which means:
We need to find the corresponding point on the graph of the function .
Step-by-step transformation:
-
Input transformation: In the function , the -coordinate is replaced by . This represents a horizontal reflection about the vertical line (flipping across ).
-
Output transformation: The function value is then modified by subtracting it from 1 (this represents a vertical reflection and a vertical shift).
We now apply this to the point :
- The -coordinate becomes .
- The function value at is , so now we calculate: Since we don't know the specific value of , we can't compute it directly unless we have information about the function . However, the transformed point is .
So the corresponding point on the graph of is:
