Problem
If for all , then what line is necessarily an axis of symmetry of the graph of ? (Give the simplest equation of this line.)
Solution
For every point on the graph of , we know is also on the graph of .
We have and , so the geometric transformation which takes to is reflection across the vertical line .
We have and , so the geometric transformation which takes to is reflection across the vertical line .
Final answer
x=1
