• A ,Reflection

,

• A ,Vertical Shift 4 units down

1) Considering the parent function, i.e. the simplest form of a family of functions, in this case, to be:


f(x)=x^4

2) Then we can state that this transformed function:


g(x)=-x^4-8

We can see the following transformations:

• A ,Reflection,, pointed out by the negative coefficient

,

• A ,Vertical Shift 4 units down

As we can see below, to better grasp it:
