To analyze the reflection of the function f(x)=(x+2)2+1, we first need to create a table of values for f(x) evaluated at x=0, x=1, and x=2.

Step 1: Calculate f(x) at the specified points

  1. When x=0: f(0)=(0+2)2+1=22+1=4+1=5

  2. When x=1: f(1)=(1+2)2+1=12+1=1+1=2

  3. When x=2: f(2)=(2+2)2+1=02+1=0+1=1

Step 2: Create the table for f(x)

To find the values of f(x), we will evaluate the function f(x) at the corresponding negative values of x:

  • For x=0, f(0)=f(0)=5
  • For x=1, f(1)=f(1)=2
  • For x=2, f(2)=f(2)=1

Final Table

Here’s the completed table with values for f(x) and f(x):

| x | 0 | -1 | -2 | |---------|----|----|----| | f(x) | 5 | 2 | 1 | | f(x) | -5 | -2 | -1 |

This shows the values of f(x) at the specified points and the corresponding values of f(x), which can illustrate the reflection property of the function.
