SOLUTION

Step 1 :

We need to list the transformation for the equation,


y\text{ = -}(1)/(5)x^2\text{ -3}

compared to the parabola parent function,


y=x^2

Step 2 :

We need to graph the function,


\begin{gathered} y\text{ = -}(1)/(5)x^2\text{ - 3} \\ \text{compared to the parabola parent function, y =x}^2 \end{gathered}

Step 3 :

The graph is as shown below:

Step 4 :

Based on the two graphs, we can see that:

The transformations are Reflection, Vertical Shift and Vertical Compression.
