Answer:
Exponential function is of the form:
where a is the initial value and b is the growth factor.
- If b> 1, then the function is exponential growth function.
- If 0<b<1, then the function is exponential decay function.
Given the parent function:
....[1]
This function is an exponential growth function.
The rule of reflection over y-axis:
Apply the rule on f(x) we get;
Therefore, the function is the graph of the function f(x) reflected over y-axis.

Answer:
A) The vertex ( h , k) = ( -2 , -18)
B) The minimum value of the given function = - 18
C) The Axis of the symmetry for f(t) is y -axis
Step-by-step explanation:
A)
Given a parabola f(t) = t² + 4 t − 14
f(t) = t² + 2(2) t + (2)²-4− 14
f(t) = (t +2)² - 18
Let comparing y = (x +2)² -18
(x +2)² = y + 18
(x-h))² = 4 a ( y - k))²
<em>The vertex ( h , k) = ( -2 , -18)</em>
B)
Given a parabola f(t) = t² + 4 t − 14
Differentiating with respective to 't'
f¹(t) = 2 t + 4
f¹(t) = 2 t + 4 = 0
now
Again Differentiating with respective to 't'
f(x) has a minimum value at t = -2
Given f(t) = t² + 4 t − 14
f( -2) = 4 + 4(-2) -14 = 4 -8 -14 = -18
The minimum value of the given function = - 18
C)
f(t) = (t +2)² - 18
Let comparing y = (x +2)² -18
(x +2)² = y + 18
(x-h))² = 4 a ( y - k))²
The vertex ( h , k) = ( -2 , -18)
The Axis of the symmetry for f(t) is y -axis
