The correct Answer is:
To determine the properties of the function \( y = f(x) \) that is symmetric about the line \( x = 2 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Symmetry about a Vertical Line A function is symmetric about a vertical line \( x = a \) if for every point \( (a + d, f(a + d)) \) on the graph, there is a corresponding point \( (a - d, f(a - d)) \). In this case, since the line of symmetry is \( x = 2 \), we can say that: \[ f(2 + d) = f(2 - d) \] for any value of \( d \). ### Step 2: Substitute \( d \) with \( x - 2 \) To express this symmetry in terms of \( x \), we can set \( d = x - 2 \). This leads to: \[ f(2 + (x - 2)) = f(2 - (x - 2)) \] which simplifies to: \[ f(x) = f(4 - x) \] This equation indicates that the function \( f(x) \) is symmetric about the line \( x = 2 \). ### Step 3: Conclusion Thus, the final result we derive from the symmetry condition is: \[ f(x) = f(4 - x) \] This means that for any \( x \), the value of the function at \( x \) is equal to the value of the function at \( 4 - x \). ### Summary The function \( y = f(x) \) is symmetric about the line \( x = 2 \) if and only if: \[ f(x) = f(4 - x) \]
