Answer

The graph of g is obtained by reflecting the graph of f across the line $y=x.$

Work Step by Step

See pages 458/459. $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ are inverse functions , so the graph of g is obtained by reflecting the graph of f across the line $y=x.$ This is done by taking points (x,f(x)) from the graph of f, and plotting (f(x),x) - points on the graph of g. (see below)
