Answer:f(x)= -8 (4x) will be the reflected function across x-axis for the function g(x).
Explanation: since we know that the image or reflection of x along x-axis = -x
That is, when we talk about a function's reflection across any axis then we have to replace variable according to that axis. For example if you have a line x=3 in positive x-axis then you can also draw a similar line x=-3 in negative x-axis. so, you can say, x=-3 is the reflection of x=3 along x axis.
Similarly, for an another line y=3, y=-3 is a reflection.
thus in the case of g(x) we can find the reflection across x-axis after replacing x by -x.
we have g(x) =8(4x)
replace x by -x we get g(-x)= 8(4×-x)= 8(-4x)=-8(4x)
so -8(4x) is the reflection of g(x)
but according to the question f(x) is the reflection of g(x) across x-axis.
Thus, f(x)=-8(4x)

The request is to find the intersection of the two sets. By definition, the intersection of two sets is another set, composed by all the elements appearing in both sets.
In other words, is the set of all elements that P and Q have in common.
P contains all the numbers from 0 to 9, V contains all the odd numbers between 1 and 19. So, their intersection will be the odd numbers between 0 and 9, i.e.
