Describe how the graph of the function \"g%28x%29=+-5x%5E2-2\" is related to the graph of the function \"f%28x%29+=+5x%5E2+%2B+1\".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "I can rewrite g(x) as:
\n" ); document.write( "\"g%28x%29=+-%285x%5E2%2B2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "which is equivalent to:
\n" ); document.write( "\"g%28x%29=+-%28f%28x%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "So the graph of g(x) is simply
\n" ); document.write( "a reflection of f(x) about the x-axis.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
