Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Your graph of f(x)=
x^2 is the parent function. What you need to know for this graph what the stretch or compression is and what the flip is. When you flip somehting over the x-axis, which is g(x), your
x^2 is negative. Also, since your graph gets skinnier, the number before the x would be a whole number, with no fractions. The only answer that fulfills this is answer choice D.
