Answer

Graph: .

Work Step by Step

Graph $f_{1}(x)=4^{x}$ first. Points: $\left\{\begin{array}{l} (-1,1/4)\\ (0,1),\\ (1/2,2)\\ (1,4) \end{array}\right.$ We obtain the graph of $f(x)$ by vertically stretching $f_{1}(x)$ by the factor $2$. Points: $\left\{\begin{array}{l} (-1,1/2)\\ (0,2),\\ (1/2,4)\\ (1,8) \end{array}\right.$ We obtain the graph of $g(x)$ by reflecting $f(x)$ about the y-axis. Points: $\left\{\begin{array}{l} (+1,1/2)\\ (0,2),\\ (-1/2,4)\\ (-1,8) \end{array}\right.$
