To answer this question, we can proceed as follows:

1. We can find the equation for the quadratic function, f(x) (solid line). To do this, we can use the vertex form of quadratic functions as follows:

Where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola. From the graph, we have that the vertex is (1, -4). We can also see that the y-intercept of this quadratic function is (0, -3). Then with this information, we can find the equation of the function as follows:

$f(x)=a(x-1)^2+(-4)\Rightarrow f(x)=a(x-1)^2-4$

Now, to find the value of as follows:

1. f(0) = -3

$-3=a(0-1)^2-4\Rightarrow-3=a(-1)^2-4\Rightarrow-3=a(1)-4$

Then, we have:

$-3=a-4\Rightarrow-3+4=a-4+4\Rightarrow1=a\Rightarrow a=1$

Then, the equation of the function is:

$f(x)=1(x-1)^2-4\Rightarrow f(x)=(x-1)^2-4$

Now, to find the other function in terms of f(x), we can see that the function, g(x), is the result of reflecting f(x) in the y-axis, f(-x), and then reflecting the resulting function in the x-axis, -f(-x), as follows:

We have that the two functions are:
