Answers:
- first box = 1
- second box = 1
- third box = 3
- fourth box = 3
Refer to the graph below.
==========================================================
Explanation:
If f(x) is an even function, then f(-x) = f(x) for all x in the domain.
What this means is that we have symmetry about the y axis. We can reflect that given curve over the y axis to generate the missing left side.
The graph shows that (1,1) is on the orange curve. It reflects over to (-1,1). This means 1 goes in the first box.
Use the rule to apply a y axis reflection. We simply just change the sign of the x coordinate from positive to negative, while keeping the y coordinate the same.
---------------
We can also see that (3,1) is also on the orange curve. It reflects over to (-3, 1) using that rule mentioned earlier.
1 goes in the second box
---------------
The graph your teacher gave you shows that if we plugged in x = 5, then we get y = 3. In other words, the point (5,3) is on the orange graph.
It reflects over to (-5, 3) to show that x = -5 leads to the output y = 3
3 goes in the third box
----------------
Lastly, the point (6,3) reflects to (-6,3) when reflecting over the y axis.
3 goes in the fourth box.
See the graph below.
