To identify the correct statement regarding the relationship between the points on the graph of \( f(x) \) and \( f(-x) \), we first need to understand the transformation involved when we consider \( f(-x) \).
When we have a point \( (x, y) \) on the graph of \( f(x) \), it means \( y = f(x) \).
For \( f(-x) \), the x-coordinate is negated. Thus, if we plug in \( -x \) into the function, we have:
\[ y' = f(-x) \]
Therefore, if \( (x, y) \) is on the graph of \( f(x) \), the corresponding point on the graph of \( f(-x) \) would be \( (-x, y) \). This describes a reflection over the y-axis.
Thus, the correct statement is:
If \( (x, y) \) is on the graph of \( f(x) \), then \( (-x, y) \) is on the graph of \( f(-x) \).
So the correct response is:
If (x,y) is on the graph of f(x) then (−x,y) is on the graph of f(−x).
