If \( (-1,8) \) is a point on the graph of \( y=f(x) \), which of the following must be on the graph of \( y=f(-x) \) ? \( (8,1) \) \( (-1,-8) \) Choose the correct answer below. \( (1,8) \) \( (-8,-1) \)

(a) Express the distance \( d \) from \( P \) to the origin as a function of \( x \). \( d(x)=\sqrt{\mathrm{x}^{4}-3 \mathrm{x}^{2}+4} \) (Simplify your answer. Type an exact answer, using radicals as needed.) (b) What is \( d \) if \( x=0 \) ? If \( x=0 \), the distance \( d \) is (Type an integer or decimal rounded to two decimal places as needed.)
