To find the function \( g(x) \) based on the rule \( r_{x\text{-axis}} \), we need to reflect the function \( f(x) = -2x + 1 \) across the x-axis.
Reflecting a function across the x-axis is done by multiplying the function by -1. Therefore:
\[ g(x) = -f(x) = -(-2x + 1) = 2x - 1 \]
Thus, the correct function is:
\[ g(x) = 2x - 1 \]
So the response is:
g(x) = 2x - 1
