The graph of g(x) is obtained by reflecting the graph of f(x)=4|x| over the x-axis. Which equation describes g(x)? g(x)=|x+4| g(x)=|x|−4 g(x)=−4|x| g(x)=|x−4|

it's very similar to this previous problem http://openstudy.com/users/newwar#/updates/580ffdeae4b06a18dc473fb6

OpenStudy (newwar):

ok i think it is A

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

in `f(x)=4|x|` is the "4" positive or negative?

OpenStudy (newwar):

positive

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

So we flip it to negative to get `-4|x|`. Doing this will flip the entire graph over the horizontal x axis
