Which transformations have been performed on the graph of f(x) = x^2 to obtain the graph of g(x) = -3(x + 1)^2 – 4? Select all that apply.



The Solution:
Given:
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=x^2 \\ \text{ Transform to:} \\ g\mleft(x\mright)=-3\left(x+1\right)^2-4 \end{gathered}[/tex]Required:
To determine the series of transformations.
The series of transformations is:
Reflection over the x-axis.
Translated down 4 units.
Vertical stretch of 3 units.
Translated left 1 unit.
