The graphs given alongside represent two functions \(f(x)\) and \(g(x)\) respectively. Which of the following is true?

Step 1: Analyze the graphs
From the left graph (for \(f(x)\)):
Looks like a “V”-shaped graph opening upward → Suggests \(f(x) = |x|\) From the right graph (for \(g(x)\)):
“V”-shaped graph opening downward → Suggests \(g(x) = -|x|\)
Step 2: Compare definitions If \(f(x) = |x|\), then clearly: \[ g(x) = -|x| = -|f(x)| \Rightarrow g(x) = -|f(x)| \] % Final Answer: (c)
If the domain of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3x + 10 - x^2}} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{x + |x|}} \) is \( (a, b) \), then \( (1 + a)^2 + b^2 \) is equal to:
For any natural number $k$, let $a_k = 3^k$. The smallest natural number $m$ for which \[ (a_1)^1 \times (a_2)^2 \times \dots \times (a_{20})^{20} \;<\; a_{21} \times a_{22} \times \dots \times a_{20+m} \] is:
