Algebra Difficulty 3.0 AMC 10/12 Find the answer

If the graph of the function y=f(x)y=f(x) passes through the point (1,3)(1,3), then the coordinates of the point that the graph of the function y=f(x)+1y=f(-x)+1 must pass through are.

A number or a short expression. Spacing and $ signs are ignored.

Solution

Analysis

This question examines the properties of functions, points that the function passes through, and tests reasoning and computational abilities. It is a basic question.

Given that f(x)f(-x) passes through the point (1,3)(-1,3), we can determine the point through which the graph of y=f(x)+1y=f(-x)+1 must pass.

Solution

Given that the graph of the function y=f(x)y=f(x) passes through the point (1,3)(1,3),

It follows that f(x)f(-x) passes through the point (1,3)(-1,3),

Therefore, the coordinates of the point that the graph of the function y=f(x)+1y=f(-x)+1 must pass through are (1,4)(-1,4).

Hence, the answer is (1,4)\boxed{(-1,4)}.
