The parent function f(x) is given by


f(x)=x^2

Notice that the transformed function g(x) is reflected over the x-axis.


g(x)\rightarrow-f(x)

So, the function g(x) becomes


g(x)=-x^2

Also, notice that the transformed function g(x) is vertically stretched.


g(x)\rightarrow a\cdot f(x)

For the given case, a = 3

So, the function g(x) becomes


g(x)=-3x^2

Therefore, the correct function is option B


g(x)=-3x^2
