Answer:

y = -5x³

Explanation:

The point of inflection of the parent cubic function f(x) = x³ is at the origin, the same place it is shown on the graph. So, there is no translation involved in creating the graph.

We know the parent function gives f(1) = 1, but here, we have (x, y) = (1, -5). This suggests a vertical scale factor of -5. So, the transformed function is ...

y = -5x³
