Question

What is an equation that is an example of reflecting a function over the x axis?? I will give a medal!!!

Answer 1

When you reflect a function over the x-axis you negate the function.

So, y = x^2.

Therefore y = - x^2 is the reflection of y = x^2 over the x-axis.

Answer 2

You minus the entire function to get a reflection over the x-axis.

Answer 3

Given: y = 2^x + 2

Reflection over the x-axis: y = -(2^x + 2) or y = -2^x - 2

Answer 4

ok, thank you! so if I reflect over the y axis it would be like f(x)=(-9x+2)??
