INFORMATION:

Using the graph of f(x) = x^2, we must describe transformations for the function g(x)=-8x^2

STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION:

First, we need to use the graph of f(x) = x^2 which is

Then, if analyze difference between f(x) and g(x), we can see that g(x) = -1*8*f(x)

So, to graph g(x) we have two transformations:

- Multiply f(x) by -1: When we multiply by -1 we obtain the parabola opening down

- Multiply f(x) by 8: When we multiply by 8 we obtain a more closed parabola

Finally, the final graph would be
